OK just a few notes...
Star Wars trailer was the best movie trailer EVER. Mike has a link to it if you haven't seen it. Also, in response to someone on his blog mentioning that they would dress up to see it on May 19th, I wrote the following:
---
My buddies and I dressed up as original characters when the original trilogy was re-released in 1997. We went all the way to Sacramento (a 2 1/2 hour drive) and saw it on a really big screen. I was Han Solo-not too convincing, but I did have an original blaster from the early 80's that my friend kept. With us we had a storm trooper (complete w/white sweats that had electrical tape around the joints), Darth Vader, and Luke Skywalker. It was hilarious-a shout out to my homies Josh, Leif, and Ben!! People were actually getting autographs from us and stuff. We created quite a buzz... then we went to the mall--still dressed in our costumes. People started making fun of us so we got outta there...good times...
---Ahhh high school. For those of you that are shocked to discover I was in high school in 1997, let me just say that it was my senior year...to those of you who were in 1st grade in 1997, I say shutup-at least I'm not as old as farty Mike-who is sooo rude that he never talks to people in Starbucks when he gets drinks. He doesn't even know their names. Oh- and by the way-it's not like I do this at EVERY Starbucks-just the one on Palm and Saturn.
Ok-you wouldn't know what I'm talking about unless you read Mike's blog (link above).
I think Mike is getting old and grumpy, THAT'S why he doesn't want to talk to people...Star Wars III - word. May 19th, 12:01 AM, BE THERE!

I can't wait! I hope it's better than the second though, and I think it will be.
Everyone does everything different in this country. Everybody's big on hospitality here, and extremely laid back. If you're short on change at the grocery store, they'll either say "oh, just pay next time!" or drop it completely.
Plus, my dad travels a lot, and the managers collect those collector's mugs from Starbucks around the world, so whenever he goes somewhere, he brings the managers mugs and they'll do the same for him. Kind of like a collector's mug black market - my dad even managed to get his and his friend's Starbucks for free in Germany when he promised the manager there that he'd send her a mug from Cyprus. That's your key - shower them with gifts.
Course, our prices are slightly higher due to the currency rate. I paid almost 6 bucks for a tall mocha today because my dad's out of town and couldn't come with me.
six bucks for a mocha is evil.
Dude, you've got it all wrong. I am not old and grumpy - that's you and Christy. You are grumpy and she is old. Word.
^ ROTFLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What did I ever do to you?!?!?!?!?!?
