The addition of the Einstein hair makes the picture complete! Now if only I could find a picture of Christopher Lloyd in a tinfoil hat . . .

The May 19 opening of [Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith] is a milestone for geeks everywhere. But the 1977 opening of the original "Star Wars" remains a milestone for everyone, geek and nongeek alike.
It was that opening that many film historians cite as the day that movie-going changed forever. Many point to that date as the official start of the summer blockbuster.

I wore a tinfoil hat during a lightning storm just to see what would happen. My mother was screaming at me from the kitchen window *lol*
And yes I do have a pic of myself dressed as an agent of the Sith Lord holding a light saber. Somewhere. In my closet.
Scan it and upload it. :)
It's on my old desktop. I shall indeed upload it in the near future :o)
Forgot to ping you. :)
I pinged you as you were posting! LOL!
My mom wishes she had a camera. I was a preteen nerd and fancied myself to be Doc from Back to the Future. It was a big tinfoil hat too... I think it was a sign of things to come ;-)
One thing I learned from movies not to do is split up from the rest of the gang when on a teen unisex sleepover.
LOL After seeing The Blob, I didn't sleep with my door open. Still don't!
Also, never EVER let a guy stop a car you're both in, especially if a lunatic with a hook for a hand has escaped the local asylum.
And if you have a friend who always wears a black or red ribbon around her neck, don't ever take it off.
What movie is that from??
I don't know if it's from a movie, but the story is that (essentially) the woman has been decapitated, and the ribbon is the only thing holding her head onto her body.
Now that I think about it, I'm not sure why that's scary. I mean, worst-case scenario you knock her head off and run away, and what's she gonna do? It's not like she can chase you. She's got no head!
Which reminds me:
Once upon a time a young lad was born without a belly button. In its
place was a golden screw. All the doctors told his mother that there
was nothing that they could do. Like it or not he was stuck with it.
All the years of growing up was real tough on him, as all who saw the
screw made fun of him. He avoided ever leaving his house and thus never
made any friends.
One day a mysterious stranger saw his belly and told him of a swami in
Tibet that could get rid of the screw for him. He was thrilled.
The next day he took all of his life's savings and bought a ticket to
Napal. After several days of climbing up steep cliffs, he came upon a
giant monastery. The swami knew exactly why he had come. He was told
to sleep in the highest tower of the monastery and the following day
when he awoke, the screw would have been removed. The man immediately
went to the room and fell asleep.
During the night while he slept, a purple fog floated in an open window
bearing in it's mist a golden screwdriver. In just moments, the
screwdriver removed the screw and disappeared out of the window.
The next morning when he woke, he saw the golden screw laying on the
pillow next to him. Reaching down, he felt his navel, and there was no
screw there! Jubilant, he leaped out of bed...
and his ass fell off.
