The Xwing.....

Race Starmaster — Oct 15, 2008 06:07 AM

I admit it, I love the X-wing, its my favorite fighter from all the films. The old Incom T-65, battered and bruise but never beaten, just looks the part.

Wait...Bu...He...Huh???

This is probably been talked about allot, But they hide Luke on Tatooine, the planet Darth Vader was from, with his only surviving Family ( his Step brother)?? WTH (What the Hutt!!)

Weekend...

Race Starmaster — Oct 06, 2008 06:01 AM

Well my youngest was as sick as the preverbal dog on Thursday into Friday, couldn't even hold down water so I worked half a day, came home and took over the care duties from my wife. The little guy was able to eat starting that night and is fine now.

The 13th Floor...

Race Starmaster — Oct 01, 2008 04:56 AM

I work in a High rise, not a spectacularly large building, only 18 floors, but certainly bigger then my house. Every morning, I walk from the 4th garage level up to 16, the other day something hit me for the first time, I couldn't believe I had not

The furthest point from the bright center of the universe.......Perth Amboy, NJ

Race Starmaster — Sep 29, 2008 05:53 AM

So Sunday morning...before the sun even contemplated rolling over the horizon, I loaded up my Truck with gear and headed to the Outer Rim, Perth Amboy. We had been invited to lay out a display at a Historic home there ( Apparently this home had been

Proto-Trooper

This weekend I picked up a figure of the "EVO-Trooper", Why? Well it all comes from a illustration in the "Force Unleashed" source book for the RPG.

Weekend Fun

Race Starmaster — Sep 22, 2008 07:05 AM

Well we went up to Hershey park, the day was fantastic, bright sunny and warm, and it was mostly free ( My Wife's work has a day up there). It was my first time at the park, it was ok but its no Disney. My eldest son decided he didn't want to take any

Padme...May flights of angels yada yada yada.

Race Starmaster — Sep 19, 2008 05:42 AM

As many may deduce from my writings, I am not a huge fan of Ep I and II. Of the new movies I feel Ep III is probably the most enjoyable. There is however one thing that makes my brain lock up...that makes sit and stare blankly at the screen as my sanity

Getting your Geek on....

Race Starmaster — Sep 18, 2008 05:21 AM

That's what I call it, when I wear my hellboy BPRD shirt, or sport my Boba Fett T-shirt and Rebel Alliance hat...."Getting my Geek on". I think of it as gang colors for those smart enough to realize how stupid beat-downs really are.

Designing my perfect droid...

Race Starmaster — Sep 16, 2008 05:11 AM

Weekend Jedi Mastering....

Race Starmaster — Sep 15, 2008 06:05 AM

As I mentioned in a earlier post, I was head coach for my sons "Under 8" Soccer team this weekend. I had run the practice on Thursday and the kids looked ready for the game. The kids were great, the day was super hot, but I was proud of them. I have to

Remembering 77

Race Starmaster — Sep 12, 2008 08:06 AM

I remember that day well, I rode my 10 speed schwin bike a considerable distance to Chestnut hill twin cinema. I got there at 10:00AM for a 1:00 PM show but that was ok, I could waist time over at the hobby shop near buy. There wasn't much of a crowd at

Coaching the Younglings....

Race Starmaster — Sep 11, 2008 05:45 AM

Im normally just a assistant coach, but tonight and for Saturdays game I will be in charge of 12 screaming, under 8 younglings. I was thinking about bringing some buckets, putting them on their heads and telling them "trust your feelings, your eyes can

Impending doom one step closer...apparently

Race Starmaster — Sep 10, 2008 05:56 AM

That's right, the super huge atom smasher in Switzerland is up and running...smashing Atoms. Some think that when it is up to its full smashy goodness, it may cause blackholes to form. I say " Great! One more thing to add to the list of worries!... Thanks

A fist full of sleep...

Race Starmaster — Sep 09, 2008 06:11 AM

That's about all I get it seems, my youngest ( 1 ½ years old) is writing his thesis on sleep deprived parents. We try to be tough, Let him cry himself to sleep...a hour of consistent screaming usually ( his labs have determined the most

How many Duel's were started with that phrase in our history...yet that is what I felt like this weekend when I had a young woman at a LARP I was attending say these Icey cold words " I Hate Star Wars".

Star War's meets Pokemon

Race Starmaster — Aug 25, 2008 07:37 AM

I took my 7 year old to a Pokemon tournament this weekend that also heralded a new release of cards. He loved it, he is still getting the hang of it but Pokemon is rapidly taking over all other things in his life. When we were leaving we began talking, he

That Clone movie

Race Starmaster — Aug 19, 2008 05:34 AM

Ok...a few days have past, time to reflect on my viewing of "The Clone Wars". I still have to say I didn't like it much. Its weird that the animation seemed to bog down the fewer characters there were on the screen. When the screen was full of blasting
