Thursday, October 9th, 2008

Generally, I can’t find anything on MySpace except a nasty case of eyestrain and messages from new “friends” apparently willing to show me fun and exciting things over a webcam.  Ah, “friendship.” But then I found this video of Mick, a Star Wars enthusiast who proves that for anything nutty that can be done… Australians [...]

But nothing that can’t be Supersized by an enterprising and talented Star Wars geek like Rena, discovered via [...]

Vandalized AT-AT Toy Sells for $1,250 – Kooky Star Wars Tribute

Friday, September 5th, 2008

That’s strange. The old Star Wars toys I’ve customized with Sharpies and finger paint and put on Ebay haven’t been selling that well.
