I've been informed the Lucasfilm website also has a Star Wars April Fool's page up:

Star Wars: Welcome to the Official Site: April 1, 1979

Answers such burning questions as:

Why hasn't Lucasfilm released Star Wars for the Betamax?

Plus you can participate in an online poll asking:

Who do you think Princess Leia should end up with?

Han

Luke

I have neither read nor seen any of those.

Sigh, another 500 words before I can watch more Kenshin. Glad you like the artwork.

Right, right, just had to remind you that dubbing = evil. Hey, glad the problem cleared up!

I have to watch this with Windows Media Player. Apparently somehow I got my hands on, er, Region 5 disks, which aren't supposed to be sold here (hehehe.... like the Escaflownes) and they won't play with the dvd software that comes with my computer. That's annoying because every time I put a disk in, I get a message telling me that it's the wrong region.

Well, now you've got something to look forward to! :) I guess that Ultraman series was really seminal--I've been told by action figure collectors that one of the first superhero action figures in the United States was Ultraman, even before they made action figures of American superheroes.

Sigh, another 500 words before I can watch more Kenshin. Glad you like the artwork.

What's your story about?

That picture of Bilbo with the pom-poms makes me feel obligated to make up a cheer for him:

Gandalf, Gandalf, he's our man!

If he can't do it, nobody can!

Other cheers we can give Bilbo? :)

A cat burglar who decides to retire. But it's harder than she thinks.

Met the goal! See you in 25 minutes. Well, 20, I don't like this new opening song at all. The first opening, 'Freckles', was sweet.

Will do! Taking a break... have to see if the subtitles fix themselves, but this is the third time in loads of episodes that a scene hasn't been fully translated, so it's a pretty good track record.

"Freckles" is the opening song for I think the first season of Kenshin. They switched openings all of a sudden - most anime open with weird love songs that don't really have anything to do with the series I just like hearing the words in Japanese.

This is not good. I've been lookin' around at ads for pickups so I can give my pickup to Myranda. And now, I've fallen in love. It's a '54 Chevy 1/2 ton. And it's got my name all over it!!!
