Well, google shows the first posts for AFP in 2002. I'd say the Porkinites
began the year before.
I don't really want to think about all the time that has passed. It's just
depressing thinking about how old Bill is getting.

Absolutely. That's Porkins. And a better name you'll never find for
an SW character. Supposedly he died because he was so fat he'd set
his
acceleration compensator up to 100% and couldn't tell his ship was
shaking apart.

Motion of the ocean - slap the thigh and ride the wave.
Many have said that when Wedge said, "Look at the size of that thing!"
he was actually referring to Porkin's ass.
But as for favorites, remember, there is peace and love with the Gonk.

Yet you don't comment on where the throttle was lodged. I don't know
how that cockpit could contain enough oxygen to keep him breathing.

From what I've heard, he won't fit. Don't know if the
