Now, about signatures--who's the guru around here for that because I need one.

Bamboota made the ones that most people had last year.

Happy to share everyone. I have been beyond lucky in my life to enjoy many special Star Wars moments. The past few years have been over the moon amazing for me. This summer, my wife and I took the kids to see Star Wars in Concert at the Hollywood Bowl (our second time seeing it). At the event, as the Star Wars main title music played, I turned to my lovely wife and told her that I may be the luckiest Star Wars fan in the world. Declarative statement of fact.

Here's a sampling of what I've been lucky enough to do just since 2009:

• Saw Star Wars In Concert twice (Hollywood Bowl and Nokia Theater)
• Saw John Williams in concert at the Hollywood Bowl
• Took my daughter to the special "Savage Oppress" Clone Wars screening at Egyptian Theater in Hollywood
• Met with Harrison Ford and attended the special ESB event at the Arclight Cinema in Hollywood
• Met George Lucas and attended the Directors Guild of America's special Star Wars retrospective (non-public event)
• Attended the opening of Legoland's Star Wars Miniland in Carlsbad, CA
• Got to see Lucas, Fisher and Hammil in the "main event" at CV (where I got to meet and hang out with all you Freaks!)
• Visited Lucasilm/ILM
• Gone to three more SDCC's and Freaks parties!

I honestly think I may have been the only person in the world to have attended all those events/done all those things. Working for ACME and running GalacticBinder has had its perks, but I'm still not sure how I've been so lucky and received such extraordinary privileges. If I ever complain about anything on these boards... shoot me!

And despite all the cool stuff, my favorite memory of all was being with my daughter at the Clone Wars screening. I'll never forget seeing the look on her face as she sat in a theater and saw some "Star Wars" on the big screen for the first time. Priceless!

I can't wait to add CVI to the above list. I know it sounds corny, but I cherish all the memories I've made at Star Wars Celebrations. I've met so many awesome people and made some really good friends, of which I count all you Freaks! To me... that's what Star Wars is all about.

^^^^ Such a stand up amazing guy, who I am happy to have had the privilege to meet a couple of times. Really, this right here is the reason I "can't wait for CVI!" Truly.

Thanks fellow freak!

 

[Darth Waller]

You've done some cool stuff and work for something you enjoy, so I hate you for that.

OK, maybe not. Looking forward to seeing you at CVI!

 

[swabie2424]

The Freaks party at CVI is gonna be legen.... wait for it... dary! Shropt did such an excellent job last time.

Now we've got to kick it up a few notches somehow. Nothing short of drinking Colt 45 with Billy Dee is gonna cut it. No pressure, Shropt!

 

[Shropt]

I can do it!! With more time to plan this year and having a few more connections I really hope to do something special.

We seem to have lost Bam though so any help I can get would be appreciated.

 

[swabie2424]

Wait, we lost Bam? But who's gonna make our T-shirt?

Shropt, now that shes working on all her shirts and designs man, shes an international superstar. I rarely see her anymore and she lives right down the street from me

 

[furystorm]

Can't wait for CVI...

362 more days!

So we have a choice to make. We can celebrate 15 years of this:



Or we can celebrate 30ish years of the real Sy Snootles:

Damm stop being a show off Swabie

Hopefully I will know in a couple days if I can get a room from Hilton.

 

[Shropt]

I like to think of her from the Clone Wars series.

Ha ha! Be nice or I won't take you to Lucasfilm anymore!

Yeah, Swabs is pretty cool. The freaks group is a pretty good group as a whole though.

 

[user 1190]

Cool I was able to get a room at the Hilton.

Can't wait for CVI...

361 more days!

Sorry for the lack of humor in today's post, and the lateness.
I have a feeling things are about to get hairy.
First day of school tomorrow!​

 

[Shropt]

There you go, now it's complete.​

 

[furystorm]

Can't wait for CVI...

360 more days!

First day of school was awesome!
The second year students came in and talked to us. I really like being part of such a small group of students. Only 10 in my class and 20 total at any given time in the program.​
