Yesterday was Star Wars Day at Miller Park in Milwaukee. The Brewers certainly could have used a Jedi both in the field and in the batting order as they faced Arizona’s Diamondbacks. After the first couple of innings, nothing went the Brew Crew’s way. When the ninth inning’s last out was tallied, the Brewers fell to the...Star Wars News & Info
Wish I had a Dusting Droid, I do. Doesn’t that have a nice ring to it – dusting droid? You see, I detest dusting. It is my least favorite task to do around the house. On the surface, it should be one of the easiest, quickest jobs to tackle – but it isn’t. At least not in our house. As my mother would say, we have “a lot of...Star Wars News & Info
You know Leia and Lando and Greedo and Darth Maul, / Vader and Qui-Gon, the Fetts and Mon Mothma, / But do you know some of the lesser characters from the Star Wars Saga?
I can hear your groans. You thought the holidays were over, and the jingles and carols that swamped the sound waves from early November to late December were finally...Star Wars News & Info
Elvis Presley's birthday was January 8. He would have been 80 years old -- if he was alive. Every year, the King of Rock 'n Roll's birthday is celebrated around the globe, and I must admit ... it astounds me. He passed from this early world almost 38 years ago! How can people acknowledge a mark that celebrates life when (and I do not...Star Wars News & Info
Songwriting is a gift. Some people have it. Some don't. I don't. Parodying songs is a gift. Some people have it. Some don't. I don't. That doesn't stop me from trying my hand at it, however. (Well, maybe it should ;-) ) We find ourselves in the midst of the holiday season, and I couldn't resist giving a parody a try -- Star Wars Style....Star Wars News & Info
Expectations. They reel you in. Fuel your thrilling anticipation. How can you not allow yourself to be caught in the eddy of mounting ideas that have been swimming around in your head like sugar plums at Christmastime?
Expectations. They suck you in. And refuse to loosen their vice-like grip.
If I may...

I was writing a birthday card to a dear friend of mine last week. As I was telling her what it has meant to me that we are friends, that our bond has remained strong in spite of the geographic distance that separates us, that we don't get to see each other very often, my musings took me down the path that pointed me toward -- had...Star Wars News & Info
I don't know what Obi-Wan Kenobi would have to say about this. In this particular case, I probably would turn a deaf ear to his tsk-tsking. Thus, I'm going to put this out there for everyone to hear -- I consider myself a very lucky individual. Oh, not when it comes to games of chance or contests. I rarely win at those. Goodness, I...Star Wars News & Info

Luke is muddy, sweaty -- obviously looking like he has been putting his body through vigorous exercise. Currently, he is upside down, balancing on his hands. Yoda is perched atop one of Luke's booted feet. The Jedi Master is directing Luke to move a nearby stone -- all in an effort to teach the Jedi-In-Training that which he must...
