Happy Birthday Star Wars!

Star Wars came out when I was 7 (yes, I'm 37) and my dad was a huge fan. Those were exciting times waiting for The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. I was quite saddened when Han Solo was put into deep freeze, repulsed by Jaba the Hut, and of course, loved the Ewoks. So it's all things Star Wars for a while. CNN story, Thirty years later, 'Star Wars' force still being felt, provides a nice historical perspective and some upcoming events. TheForce.net has tons of great links to stories about Star Wars turning 30. I'll be keeping an eye on the Star Wars site to see if anything special goes on there. The TechRepublic has some fun videos and trivia. I wonder if there's going to be anything going on in Second Life?
