301.Never underestimate the power of the dark side. 302.These ARE the droids you are looking for, you idiots! 303.If you ever fall into a murky swamp with strange things swimming in it, make sure you're made of metal. 304.When you're kissing the princess, lock the door. 305.Sandpeople always ride single file to hide their numbers, and they are rather inaccurate with blasters. 306.Remember to keep the lead actress's character name and real name straight!! 307.You must feel the Force flowing through you.

Trap them in mousetraps and save yourself the hassle. Bits and bytes make good bait. 311.Even if the Old Man does tell you to leave his throne room, it's usually a good idea to stick around, out of sight: you never know when someone will throw him down a large shaft.

Chances are Lord Vader will choke your superior to death and give you the job. 321.Never call bounty hunters scum when they're within earshot. 322.A protocol droid who says he's not much of a storyteller is a liar. (remember C-3PO in ANH when he's in the oil bath, then in the Ewok village in ROTJ) 323.Make tilted lines whenever possible. "Look at the size of that thing!" 324.Adjoinder to previous: Cut the chatter, Red Two. 325.Humans roasted over an open fire make for great feasts. 326.You can't beat the speed of light.

(Sorry couldn't edit this one) 344.If she's got red hair, look out! 345.If you want to exterminate Jedi Knights, be thorough! 346.Never trust a clone (unless he's green [Dorsk 81]). 347.Never trust anybody with two "U"'s in their name. 348.Smugglers are really nice guys. 349.Mining is always a bad idea (Lando Calrissian, only). 350.Jedi Knights tend to lose consciousness.
