Some things.

1. EXCELLENT NEWS. The IMDB entry for Star Wars Episode Three states in its trivia section that “Tom Stoppard did a ‘script polish’ for the film. Something he’s done on many Lucasfilm productions.” We know this must be true because IMDB never lies. What this means is that the entire horrible film is, in fact, an enormous joke. That “you’re beautiful” “but I’m blind” “that’s cause love’s blind” scene (succinctly summed up here) is thus the biggest joke of all, and not the an example of the worst screenwriting ever/evidence that George Lucas is an asshole. Well, actually, George Lucas is probably still an asshole.

2. Today on Cross-Country Checkup it was the annual summer booklist show. You know, the one where people call in to reccomend books that they like. The funniest thing in the world was how completely unimpressed Rex Murphy was with the woman who thought everyone should go read this book about how 9-11 was a conspiracy and how he just kept cutting her off and trying to shut her up. Oh, Rex, you sassy man. You’re in on the conspiracy, aren’t you?

3. All you people who weren’t at the Star Wars Screening of Staggeringly Ambitions Proportions last night missed out on some pretty good Tab Energy Drink vanilla ice cream floats. And Han Solo being charming. You missed that, too.
