I wonder if his parents will continue with the law suit against the kids who
put the original video on the net if Lucas were to actually agree to give
SWK a cameo in Episode III?

Indeed! Although, he needs to get his parents off the whole lawsuit thing
and attempt to use his fame and fortune, striking while the iron is hot.
His 15 minutes are about ready to be completely up in a few nanoseconds, so
he better act quickly!

The amusing thing is how little money his parents are suing for. It's
something just over $200,000. Is that Canadian or US dollars? American
parents would go for closer to $1 million US --you'd need at least $150,000
to cover lawyer fees.

You really should take the time to write out two more keystrokes.
Using numerals in a word makes you look lazy at best, and moronic at
worst.

Ty,

Well, I thought the video was funny as hell. But I do believe that the
parents are suing because THEY are having to pay for a psychologist and had
to put SWK in a private school for disturbed individuals.( i
know...whatever..but I think I read that somewhere) Maybe THEY are getting
drained of cash, as so they feel a need to sue since they didn't do anything
wrong and are forking out the bucks. They are suing the kids parents, who
are responsible for the kids actions. Are they gonna sue the kids? no. I
believe they are suing for 200,000 dollars, which is only like $8.00
american anyways. I don't think that's asking for much. they aren't asking
for millions ($40.00 american) which really is a day at paintball with an
electro.

I feel a little sorry for the kid, as he was embarrassed WORLDWIDE as
opposed to just being tease in school.

just my 2 cents and I know you said you don't care.
