This is an embarrassing post. However, it’s been a trying week and I’ve promised I’ll always be honest with you.
Read More Moved to Tears by Return of the JediI made available again a post that had stayed locked when my blog went active again recently. I hadn’t realized it was locked down still until I referred to it in a conversation with a pal. I think I made a joke in there somewhere but…whatever. The important point is, it’s called Luke Skywalker: Crisis Manager, and […]

Read More Han Solo, The Tin Man and InceptionThis past Christmas, I purchased a vinyl edition of the Return of the Jedi soundtrack for my good friend @TheInsaneRobin.

Often I promise these sorts of blogs will […]
Read More Can Droids See Force Ghosts?On the February 20, 2014 episode of Words With Nerds, I posited an ethical question rooted in Star Wars, the answer to which may carry implications for all of sci-fi, really.

Read More AT-ATs of EndorRecently, regular blog commenter and occasional influencer Tom (who really deserves a proxy vote at any meeting of the Convocation) asked the question, “Why does Luke need to be frozen in Carbonite?” The stock answer is, so the lil’ scamp won’t cause problems on his way to the Emperor. You have to imagine that a […]
Read More Luke n’ CarboniteYep. I’m still in the process of reclaiming my old blogs from their old origin points to protect them from being locked away from me for good. I’m also very tired and going to sleep pretty much immediately after I post this. This time, I decided to nab another one that explores the nature of […]
Read More Flashback Blog: I Must Obey My MasterThis is going to be a bit therapeutic for me. As a Star Wars fan, one of the crosses to bear is the memes that spring up and seem to be reborn every so often.
