I remember eating C-3PO's cereal in the 80s! The cereal tasted surprisingly good! Unfortunately, it was not in the market for too long. As a kid, I used to be a fan of cereals. Those were the days when the prize was located in the bottom of the box, and one always had to fight the temptation to open a new box right away and stick one's hand in the cereal bag to pull out the prize! A friend of mine went to a sci-fi convention in 1987, and saw an unopened, plastic-wrapped C-3PO's cereal box selling for $100. Adjusted to inflation, that is $178 in 2006 dollars! Would you pay that much for a box of stale cereal?

I was a cereal fan as a kid, and my grandparents would order me anything that was in the back of the box. The best cereal offer that I ever ordered was a Battlestar Galactica Viper cockpit offered in the back of Lucky Charms! I had HOURS of fun with that!

The last time I ordered an item from the back of a cereal box was Star Wars related! In 1995 I ate many Apple Jack boxes to get the X-Wing Rogue Squadron comic book special, the Han Solo Stormtrooper action figure, a Making of Star Wars VHS tape, and a hologram Ben Kenobi action figure.

I was very busy for the past few days. A fellow attorney needed some witnesses to be interviewed, and some of them needed to be served with a subpoena. Usually the local sheriff serves subpoenas on witnesses, since some people can react very violently when served with a subpoena. My fellow attorney did not have time to use the local sheriff, so I volunteered to serve the subpoenas myself after work (attorneys, like me, can serve them). Life is an adventure, so why not take a little bit of risk? I am 6'1'' and have an athletic physique (and ate C-3PO's cereal in the 80s), so why not? I had to drive to a few rural small towns to locate certain shady characters. Sometimes I would feel as if I was in a Twilight Zone episode, where everyone in the small town is in a big conspiracy and one has to leave town before dark. I had cool adventurous moments; for example, after serving this one scary dude in the evening, his dog started to follow me. He did not do anything about it and let the dog follow me. I thought the dog was going to jump and attack, but fortunately the scary dude changed his mind and called back his dog Rat. Yes, that was the name of his dog. Rat. It was a big, grey dog, with that horror-movie look about him.

Scary...and I loved it!
