<<<Public Service Announcement From Stenos Tavern Assoc.>>>

A man wanders out of "The Wing" (famous bar on Stenos), and stumbles
over to his speeder bike.  Unbeknownst to him, he is followed by two
men.  They approach him just as he gets on his bike...

"Whaddayouwant?"
"I don't think you're well enough to drive."
"Whaddyamean? Ayecandraive..."
"Give me your keys"
"No."
"You don't NEED to drive home tonight..."
(Jedi fails Affect Mind Roll)
"Yes, I do.  Seeya!"
(Drunk fires up his speeder and prepares to fly down the street,
when the Jedi ignites his lightsaber, and cuts his speeder in half,
leaving the drunk holding his handlebars)
"Wow.  Maybe you're right...ugh!"
(Drunk agrees and passes out on the spot)

"Jedi don't let friends drive drunk."
"Consumption of mass quantities of lum or other alcoholic beverages
 may inhibit your ability to navagate a starship or operate a
 repulsorlift vehicle.  Enjoy in Moderation.  This has been a public
 service announcement from the Stenos Tavern Association, sponsored
 by Uncle Owen's Lite Lager, who reminds you 'There's no better way
 to waste time with your friends'."

Actually, the guy who was on the speeder was a spy that my players
were trying to track down.  One of my players (a Jedi) went up to
him and cut his speederbike in half.  The spy repsonded by shooting
him in the leg.  At which point, another player (who was right
behind him) shot him with a holdout blaster on stun, and knocked
him out.

In the confusion, some bystanders noticed the confrontation.  Once
the public began to notice, their boss (a hutt crimelord who
prettymuch owns the town anyways) put out a blurb in the local
paper saying that the man was drunk and that his men were merely
preventing an accident.
