The Force will be with you always: STAR WARS at 40
I didn’t see Star Wars on opening day. In truth I don’t even remember exactly when I saw it, but it was later in the summer of 1977. We had just moved from Wisconsin to Oregon, and in that time … Continue reading

“To me, she is royalty.”
Thank you, Carrie Fisher.
I got a BB-8 mug.
