Subway Car Drama
This is great. Imagine riding on the subway and suddenly a Star Wars scene happens in front of you.

Even More Star Wars Cakes
Recently I was browsing around the internet and stumbled across yet another Star Wars cake on Great White Snark. Star Wars and cake are two of my favorite things, as past posts have suggested. This one scores big on difficulty points.
So a bunch of folks got together to make a wedding cake for a nice guy named Jason. They put in a combined 60 hours on the project, which would have been about $5000 at standard rates, but this was clearly a labor of love. Or a strong desire to root out your enemy’s secret base, with cake. Either way it worked to great effect.
That story led me to another previous occasion involving a bucket of bolts with frosting: the Millenium Falcon cake. Check out the links below, and enjoy! If you would like to bake me a Star Wars cake, contact me today!

Spotlight: Star Wars Grinnell
Star Wars fan films — be they good or bad — are a creative expression of people’s love for Star Wars. Some are ambitious and serious, others are light-hearted and funny. Here’s one that doesn’t take itself seriously, yet has some impressive effects for a fan film.
Check out Star Wars Grinnell directed by Henry Reich, winner of the 2009 Titular Head Film Festival. Congratulations, and thanks for entertaining us all.

Stormtrooper Donates Kidney

Honor is such a cool thing, even if it is amongst Imperials. What’s the stormtrooper creed? Strength, honor, and may your aim be true. And we saw this in action recently, when one unfortunate ‘trooper found himself needing a kidney. A matching donor was found — not surprisingly — with his brethren in the 501st. He received the donated kidney and all went well. No medical droids involved, and no broken hearts.
All kidding aside, it’s good to see that kind of support from the SW community. To the 501st: you’re a class act!

Star Wars, Summarized
As told by someone who hasn’t seen the saga, except in “bits and pieces.” Hard to imagine there’s still holdouts left out there, but there you go.
