A long time ago, in a Galaxy far far away, May 25, 1977 to be exact- people lined up in crowds (gasp) to sit next to people in packed theaters (double gasp), and even shared popcorn, putting their fingers in their mouth and then back into the popcorn box for more! Somewhere Dr. Fauci just felt a large disturbance in the force as thousands of our readers winced at the germ ramifications of multiple people sharing a box of popcorn. Never again.
And of course, somewhere and sometime after May 25, 1977, a future Harvard Law graduate and everyone's favourite federal blogger saw Star wars and became hooked.
So Happy May The Fourth Be With You Day. Enjoy. We need to take our holidays and enjoyment where we can get them.
And if you need it, watch the famous trailer for fun.

Your thoughts?
The other day a post appeared about Judge Cueto slamming the complaining lawyers and the Florida Bar and about an article in the Florida BullDog about how Tunis reached a diametrically opposite result in the companion case by letting the complaining lawyers write their own self-serving version in a report she only signed. This is like letting the arresting cop or the State into the jury room. It made me think about those cases in which Tunis bends over to please the State and deals out lengthy sentences to please the State.
ReplyDeleteRead it for yourselves.

Reading this article reminds me of the quote: Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.
Reading the article and Judge Cueto's report is disturbing how Tunis just signed what the complaining lawyers wrote for her to sign. Read it for yourselves then decide if Tunis or anyone like her deserves to stay on the bench.
1) A lot - 6 million.

3) Threepio
4) Kashyyk

9) ?
10) Naboo
I never understood why they used the term parsec in the Kessel run as if it was a unit of time. A Parsec (PC) is a unit of distance, equal to approximately 3.26 light years. So the M. Falcon made the run in 39.12 light years. What was the old route and how much longer ( distance wise) was the old route?
ReplyDeleteWe still don't know how long in relative time ( I.e. Inside the Falcon) it took to do that run.
