Star Wars is coming.... and I am a glutton for spectacular punishment.

I love it when someone reminds you of something you said. Melissa reminded me that I said this to Jason at lunch the other day.

"Arey, I grew up on Star Wars. You don't fuck with the force."


I got the midnight tickets today. I am excited about it, even though I know it won't live up to what I loved as a kid. Hell, I still even love the Ewoks. I just am sad that the likes of Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman, and Samuel L. Jackson are not in the 4-6 of the series. Lucas just reminds me sometimes of the little kid struggling to tie his shoes after being successful only once and can't do it again. He refuses help when it comes to his aid. "I can do it! I know I can direct! Leave me alone!"

Oh well, the light sabers are amazing and I am hooked like an American kid on the McDonalds Happy Meal O'Crack.
