May the force be with you. ~Yoda
This is a truth I would NEVER have learned on my own. I owe my ward friends a debt of gratitude for educating me and for offering to help me correct the error of my ways.
We found one night a month to designate as "Star Wars Night." We started with Episode I: The Phantom Menace. I learned that this is starting at the beginning of the story's chronology, but it was actually the fourth movie to be released.
April was the month we watched the final (or third) movie in the series: Episode 6: Return of the Jedi. In celebration of this momentous occasion Tracy and I made cupcakes that were supposed to resemble Jabba the Hutt.
Luckily, the real Jabba is ugly too.
I now know a lot about light sabers, wookies, the Death Star, the Empire, the dark side, Jedi Knights, and the FORCE. My education is complete, so I can honestly tell my friends that I'm GLAD I watched the series...once.
Well, not exactly complete; there's a "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" TV show, too. At any rate, thanks for being brave and watching the movies with us. The cupcakes were great, as I remember.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about a TV show...that might be more time than I can commit to!
