Star Wars and the next generation

I admit it... I'm a Star Wars snob. I consider Episodes I, II, and III to be cruel and unusual viewing punishment. Don't try to talk me out of it. I'm pretty inflexible on this point.

My favorite SW episode is V: The Empire Strikes Back. I won't go into all the reasons that it is the best. Just take my word as law on this issue.

Introducing the children to the world of Star Wars has been fun, EXCEPT, like all the other children who did not see the original release of IV, they LOVE Jar Jar Binks. Sigh. I tried to talk them out of it. And Yordanos cannot get enough of the Ewoks. Sigh.

I hope I don't come across as a geek in this post... hmmm... probably too late. BUT, I am apparently not the only one who feels the love for TESB...

Witness... Behold the Wonder of THIS.

I totally want one. My birthday is June 7. Thank you.

P.S. Arnez, I'm totally jealous that you got THIS for your birthday. I knew what it was right away and coveted. Alas. My birthday is June 7. Thank you.

P.S.S. Dudes! I forgot that it is April 1 today as I write this. The item from TESB is NOT REAL. I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooo disappointed. KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!

Um, I don't think he's going to give it up... I told him you'd be very appreciative, but he looked at me like I had grown a second nose. Sorry... I tried...

Oh, BTW, Kai was super upset that there wasn't any more fudge for dessert. He almost cried. I gave him the generic, "There's none left." and didn't answer his demand to know WHO had eaten it. I can always make more... unfortunately/fortunately. You know how that is!
