I don't understand how someone who creates an entire universe cannot keep track of the simple things within said universe. I was researching the status of the alleged Star Wars Live Action TV Series slated to be released 2012 (I remember when it was slated to be released 2010!!!) and I saw this quote from Mr. George Lucas himself:
"The Emperor and Darth Vader are heard about — people talk about them — but you never see them because it doesn't take place where they actually are. There are storm troopers and all that, but there are no Jedis [sic]."
Now I'm unsure what is worse; that I know George incorrectly pluralized "Jedi" or that he doesn't know that he did. If you look closer the person who jotted this quote down put a "[sic]" right next to "Jedis" so everyone but Mr. Lucas knows that he is wrong.
Wake up George!
In other news of Star Wars grammatical/spelling blunders, I cannot ignore that Brian Posehn mis-spelled "Wookiee" in the CD booklet for his album "Nerd Rage." Brian, you left off the second "E." No disrespect, I mean you do have a joke that references that Han shot first but just be mindful of the future (OH!). This was just a friendly observation followed by a "kudos!"

Dream Job #1
"Through the force, things you will see." -Yoda
Dream job #1 is most certainly a pipe dream. And I know what you're all thinking: "Adam, I thought you hate Jedi and love the Sith?" True. But the Sith have the rule I hate which is "there can only be two." (thanks for nothing Darth Bane!!) Jedi at least have an academy where you can be trained to use the force. Plus the Sith love scouting new blood by corrupting Jedi, so by becoming a Jedi a Sith Lord or Apprentice may approach me and ask for me to join their cause (obviously my new master and I would have to slay the other Sith member to keep the rule of two.)
Now you are probably wondering why my #1 dream job is not "comedic writer" or "part of a successful sketch troupe." And that is because I truly believe that those two goals (especially the former) are most certainly attainable by me, and I'd also like to not consider them "dream jobs."
Thanks so much for reading this week and may the force be with you.
