“We had each other. That’s how we won.”
– Lando Calrissian (Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker)
ALIENS AMONG US - UAP’S
“At the end of 2017, it was announced that the United States government had been studying Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP), which appear to be structured craft, in secret for over a decade through the Advanced Aerial Threat Identification (AATIP) Program. Shortly thereafter, three official US Navy videos were declassified and released. The US Navy both confirmed their authenticity as well as the physical reality of UAPs. It has also been disclosed that, at times, the US Navy has had to deal with near daily encounters, which have interfered with military operations.” Read more by clicking the magic button.
STAR WARS DAY 2020
It’s the most thrilling day in the galaxy, and that always means I wear my hair in Princess Leia buns. Here’s the annual photo, 2020 edition.
But that’s not the only Star Wars fun. I made Dark Force Nachos for our movie lunch (Clone Wars) and blue milk pudding, a tatooine delicacy (no banthas were harmed during the milking).
Dark Force Nachos and Blue Milk Pudding
Today’s most excellent movie selection
I was also inpired by the Covid-19 healthcare and essential workers tribute the artists at Industrial Light and Magic (ILM) put together. ILM is Lucasfilms visual effects house of Star Wars fame. Their artwork is an expression of gratitude to these folks who are keeping society working right now.
You can view their artwork on ILM’s Twitter and Instragram channels. If you have time to visit their website here, you’ll also be treated to the commentary by each artist about the piece they did for this special collection they call “Heroes of the Pandemic.” Here’s a sample.
My other guilty pleasure was putting together this little Star Wars Day page for my website to share my delight with you.
Wear your mask and may the force be with you. - Mary
