Taking on a Blizzard - Star Wars Style
2011-02-02 03:39:00 It started yesterday with all the hype about the impending blizzard. "One of the worst storms that will hit Chicago," claimed the news websites. "This is the real thing," warned Tom Skilling, WGN's weather man. We asked Katie what our strategy should be to deal with the storm. "Ask Yoda to use the Force to stop the snow," she recommended. Ummm, we'll let you know how that works out for us. Just in case Yoda is too busy fighting against the Sith, we made some back-up plans. We filled the cars with gas. (But I'm not sure why, since it seems unlikely that we will be able to get out of our garage and drive down our unplowed alley). ...

Among them was the most admired/hated man in the galaxy - George Lucas. He announced the Blu-Rays of the original trilogy will finally be coming out in 2011, with them some never-before-seen deleted scenes (hopefully the discs aren't "Special Editions").

Obama Press Sec. Gibbs' Challenging Reading Material: a Star Wars Pop-
2010-03-28 19:57:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Descending from Air Force One, Obama Press Secretary Robert Gibbs clutches his latest choice of reading material, the "Star Wars Pop-Up Guide." The captions write themselves, don't you think? We know the book was a gift from the president for Gibbs' son, Ethan, of course. But the photo is just too delicious and the thoughts it brings to mind are many and varied. From the low-grade, comic book choice of reading material revealing the "depth" of Robert Gibbs' mind, to the idea of Obama as evil Emperor trying to create an evil empire, the allusions between the pop culture, bubble gum reading and the Obama administration are just too hard to pass up. Let your mind...
