So, since last Sunday until today, it's been an incredible good week for me. A lot of the stuff that made this week great was Star Wars involved, and some of it was just cool stuff that happened to me.

So, to start it all off, my summer break started on June the 1st, and I got to come out here to my grandparents house in New Jersey(I've been here since and I'm staying until August). Then, a while after that, Star Wars Episode IV was featured on AFI's 100 years 100 movies. I don't remember where it placed, but it was at least higher. The day after that my uncle and I went to Wal-Mart so he could get something, and I happened upon the Obi-Wan and ARC Trooper comic pack. It wasn't with the other toys, so I assume some kid left it there instead of putting it back. Between this and the next good event, there were a lot of shows about Star Wars and showings of Star Wars on movie channels, and it goes without saying that I watched pretty much all of it. Okay, so a week after that, we had to make a trip to Target, and my grandma gave me some money for helping her around the house. When we got there I found the Quinlan Vos and Vilmarh Grarhk comic pack. I also found a limited edition book that had the entire Cantina band in it in two really cool tins. I didn't have the money to buy it, but I figure it'd be worth telling you guys about it so you can look for it if it interest you. Then, when we got to my Uncles house, there was a box there from one of my dads friends with old stuff he didn't want anymore. Included in it were:
old C-3PO and R2-D2 action figures
a Vulture Droid toy from Burger King
a Super Soaker water gun that looks like a wookiee pistol(love it )
the A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back fact books
the Empire Strikes Back storybook
and best of all, the original Return of the Jedi comic book.
Then, last night, there was a show on History channel called "Star Wars: The Legacy Revealed" on that was really good. And, to finish it all off, today I got to see one of the things I've wanted to see most in my life for a long time. A Black Bear, up close, right outside my Grandparents house. They live in New Jersey, surrounded by woods, so bears are actually quite common. I was picking weeds for her, and when I turned around the Bear(it looked to be about two years old, it came up to stomach height on me) was just staring at me, then walked off. We got a picture of it running away, but it was just incredible to see it standing right there next to me. So, yea, I hope all of you have had as good a month as I have, and I'd like to hear about it if you did. Goodbye and...

May the Force be with You

p.s. I just saw that they are going to show a re-fun of a Conan O'brien episode tonigh where he talks to George Lucas, just in case your interested.
