I have some of the funniest e cards saved, most of them are not acceptable to post here. A few though…
Happy Easter (& Passover)
Part of Darth Mauls Sith training was when Darth Sidious took him to see the Easter Bunny…

The eclipse. All I can say is those minutes just before, during, & just after totality were amazing. Even knowing what is going on it was still mind blowing. I can just imagine what humans thought before they knew & understood the science of what was happening. How easy it would have been to believe it was the end of the world.
At least we know better now. Uh huh.
The whole week has been one of extremes. Here in Austin they estimated that close to 1 million people came here to experience the eclipse. It made an over crowded city even more so. The last few days the airport had more people leaving than during peak holidays or SXSW (South by South West festival). People panic buying food & filling up their cars worried that there would be nothing left due to the people visiting.
“We know it’s not the end of the world, but we are going to act like it is”.
Then just a few hours after the eclipse we had some severe thunderstorms. Lightning was insane & constant. So close with no thunder delay. The booms knocked over numerous figures that never fall as well as a couple picture frames.
Hard to try & calm my small dog when my own heart was racing. Then overnight after the storm line moved on it was cloudy & just out of nowhere BOOM! Massive thunder clap & LONG trailing rumbles. Then nothing (rain, wind, or more thunder) just quiet. Happened 3 times over a couple hours. So weird.
The next day (Tuesday) started nice but around 5pm there were storms passing just north of us & out of nowhere hail started coming down. Marble size to begin with, then golf ball to tennis ball size & the amount falling increased outrageously. Sounded like jack hammers on the roof of the house. Lasted about 10-15 minutes. Then it was gone & sunny.
10 minutes after it ended & was moving northeast…

Nope. Definitely not the end of the world.
We had totality close to where I work (within 10 miles) with the same expectations of too many people and over crowding.
Except for some heavy traffic before and after, it was a calm and quiet day. But everyone stocked up thinking there would be shortages.
I wrote it off as a Chamber of Comerce hype show.
Your thunderstorms definitely feel like harbingers of doom after an eclipse

A little ode to the low-key, absolute paragon of "tough love" parenting.
Vader was a great parent!
Happy Father's Day, people!
Vader was a great parent!
- He put his daughter on lockdown, when she started getting too rebellious;
- He wasn't afraid to call her on her BS ("You are part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor!");
- He taught her the consequence of lying, when she told that "little" lie about the Rebel base on Dantooine;
- He gets rid of the bad influences, filling his daughter's head with such silly drivel as Republics, democracy, and such;
- When things got serious between her and that scruffy-looking nerfherder, Vader properly vetted the dude and made sure his intentions were honorable;
- When his son started to act like he knew it all and thought he had some Jedi skills, Papa Vader knocked him down a few pegs;
- When his son came of age, Vader tried to counsel him with some smart career options, in light of the current political and social climate; and
- When he saw someone else harshly punishing his son, he stood up for his son and put that person in their place.
Happy Father's Day, people!

I love how the jawa is going as Spiderman for Halloween.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Once again the scariest part of Halloween is what comes after.
I wanted Pong Krell, but between the two choices I chose the Wolf-Bat Catina Dude.
The vote I was referring to is the one that resulted in Palpatine becoming Chancellor. As for the LFS vote it was
BatWolf thing all the way. I was attached to his campaign & was there for each round he won…
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone
