Many thanks to Angela for all her help getting this arranged and started. And of course, Riff is the one who got this thing going as far as the articles are concerned. It just wouldn't have happened without him to help start it.

So nothing much about me. I'm just a WhiteBoy from Arkansas. :) I used to be the biggest Star Wars fan I knew, until this place started.  Now...I know nothing.  I'm not worthy!  You guys are so far past me it's not even funny!  :D

I'm just glad everyone comes around and pitches in to help and has a good time doing it!

About me

 * Most recent few books I have read:
 * Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader
 * Shadowrun: Never Deal With a Dragon. Friend told me about the Shadowrun world, and hence the Neuromancer and now this book.
 * Neuromancer. It was OK.  Pretty great considering when it was written, but just meh now.  Kinda neat how many much modern sci-fi entertainment was influenced by this book.
 * Revenge of the Sith. Really liked it.  As usual, you get more out of the book than the movie.  It cleared up several things that were kinda weak in the movie.


 * Most recent movies I have watched:
 * Back to the Future III - 4 out of 5. Good, fun movie.
 * Hitch - 4 out of 5. Pretty good romantic comedy.
 * Revenge of the Sith - 5 out of 5. Heh...yeah, I know...I just watched it not too long ago.  :)
 * Back to the Future II - 3 out of 5. Good parts, but overall....cheesy.
 * The Matrix Revolutions - 3 out of 5. Eh, should have been better.
 * Fun with Dick and Jane - 3 out of 5. Funny.
 * Back to the Future - 5 out of 5. Just a fun movie...a classic.  Especially with the Van Halen-toting Darth Vader part.  :)
 * Fantastic Four - 4 out of 5. Really liked it.
 * Sahara - 3 out of 5. Just OK.
 * Empire Strikes Back - 5 out of 5. Probably my favorite Star Wars movie.
 * Black Hawk Down - 5 out of 5. One of my favorites!  I am just now getting around to watching my Veterans Day movie.  This movie does a good job of honoring those who have fought and died for my freedom.  Thanks, guys!
