National Star Wars Day

Happy National Star Wars Day to you all! Apparently, May 4th is National Star Wars Day because "the 4th will be with you". Seriously, I'm not making this up! Why they picked May, I don't know.

Let's see, I got a bunch of Star Wars stuff stuck on my computer, so lets settle for a little of each.

: some quotes. Classics, all of them.

Mace: "Mount up. Right now."
Nick: "Shee, still pretty free with the orders, aren't we? What if I just don't wanna? What if I do like thinking about all that stuff? What if I want those people dead? What then?"
Mace: "Then I will beat you into unconsciousness and ask someone else."
— Mace Windu, convincing Nick Rostu to help him with the Balawai[src]

Mara: "The Emperor would have considered you a sentimental fool who deserved to die."
Corran: "I'll remember that next time I dance on his grave."
―Mara Jade and Corran Horn[src]

Corran: "Consider also that the odds this room is being monitored are extraordinarily high."
Anakin: "Since when did a Corellian ever care about odds?"
Corran: "Fine. No odds. They are listening to us. Count on it."
— Corran Horn with Anakin Solo, detained by the Givin[src]
You're weird, Anakin Skywalker."
―Amee, to Anakin Skywalker in the understatement of the year[src]

Owner: "What's your name, little fellow?"
R2-D2: "THAT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. IN ANY CASE, YOUR FACIAL FEATURE SET SUGGESTS THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE THE INTELLIGENCE TO RETAIN MY NAME FOR MORE THAN A NANOSECOND. IT IS EVIDENT THAT YOU HAVE BEEN TAUGHT TO REPEAT SOUNDS YOU HAVE HEARD AND THAT YOU UNDERSTAND NEITHER THE WORDS YOU HEAR NOR THE ONES THAT EMERGE FROM YOUR MOUTH."
―A shop owner on Vannix and R2-D2[src]


Etain: "Is there a plan C?"
Fi: "The nice thing about the alphabet, ma'am, is that it gives you plenty of plans to choose from."
―Etain Tur-Mukan and Fi[src]
Besides, Master, those miners intended to murder you. Or worse. Any complaints they would have at being murdered would be the highest form of hypocrisy."
―HK-50 unit, to the Jedi Exile[src]
Pavan: "Hey, what happened to the door?"
I-5YQ: "It appears to have had a disagreement with somebody."
―Lorn Pavan and I-5YQ, viewing the handiwork of Darth Maul[src]

Sharr: "No, she can't."
Piggy: "Yes, she can."
Sharr: "I'm the psychological warfare expert here, and I say she can't."
Piggy: "I'm three times your mass, and can take off your head with a single bite, and I say she can."
―Sharr Latt and Voort saBinring[src]

"Their force nearly equals ours?! Unacceptable odds! Order an immediate retreat!"
―A Neimoidian commander, displaying typical Neimoidian battle tactics[src]

Booster: "But you didn't bring my grandchildren."
Corran: "They're scattered to the four corners of the galaxy on Jedi business. Not my fault."
Booster: "Humpf." [to Mirax] "Your husband still can't do simple math. You can't scatter two children to four corners."
Mirax: "Jedi think that everybody can be divided into fractions."
— Booster Terrik, Corran Horn, and Mirax Terrik Horn[src]

Old trick


"There's a Wookiee behind me? Riiiiiight. Like I'm gonna fall for that."

"Someday the Fetts will learn to stop wearing jetpacks. Someday."


"Styrofoam? Kidding, you must be. Insane you are, if getting on that deathtrap you think I am!" -- Yoda, after budget cutbacks hit the Republic fleet.

:D

Also, today is Audrey Hepburn day. No offense, but Star Wars owns Audrey Hepburn right out of the sky.

Now I have My Fair Lady songs stuck in my head.
Rats.

    The quotes are actually all from books! Beside each quote caption, you will see a little blue [src] sign that will tell where the quote is from! (its kinda hard to see.)
    You have to agree, that actually translating r2d2 is more interesting then just saying "r2 d2 beeped."

    Have you read the adventure in odyssey books? I've read "strange journey back", "the passages series", and another book which name i can't remember.

    This is getting complicated! I don't post where you commented (my Blogger) anymore... but I used to be involved in a Star Wars Fanforce- I was the co-founder for it in my area. Have you heard about Fanforces? They're a great opportunity for fans and families to get together and do fun stuff. If you've heard of them, then I'm sorry to advertise it to you. ;-)

    I'm not going to CV because I'm in a bunch of weddings this summer, and none are near Orlando. I've only done one Celebration before, but it was the first one! I was about 13 back then... long time ago. Hah! The photo of me with Jango was taken at the RotJ premiere in El Paso, near where I'm from.

three amazing--and relatively little known--psalms

So I'm reading Psalms in the Bible right now. Well, Psalms is one of the three places I read from. I'm reading the Bible all the way through and read two chapters from three places--the Old Testament, the middle of the Old Testament, and the New Testament--every day. I'm in Deuteronomy and Romans in the other sections, but in the middle I'm still right where I started from-Psalms. Cause Psalms is really really long. I was getting kind of tired of Psalms(which isn't really the right attitude to be reading the Bible in). But I realized there are some really breathtaking passages in Psalms, and I'm glad I read them. These are my three favorites: *Buck Forester on Flikr Psalm 65 This one is about God's spectacular creation. What mighty praise, O God,      belongs to you in Zion. We will fulfill our vows to you, 2       for you answer our prayers.      All of us must come to you. 3  Though we are overwhelmed by our sins,      you forgive them a

Howl's Moving Castle book analysis

“I feel ill. I'm going to bed, where I may die.” ― Howl, upon having a cold. I've decided to call them "book analysis" because they're not really reviews that tell you how much I liked the book, rather,  me taking the book apart and looking at different aspects of it for my own entertainment. Read on. Also, read Howl's Moving Castle. This is the original cover of Howl's Moving Castle and I have got to say it is the UGLIEST thing I have ever seen. I like the new one much better. Ahem. First of all, I should point out that Howl's Moving Castle is a children's book. However, I like to hold all books I read to the same standard, after all, they're written by adults. I had biased expectations of Howl's Moving Castle from the start, because I kept hearing from several sources how amazing, how fantastic, how hilarious and how romantic the book was, and hearing the perfectly gorgeous soundtrack by Joe Hizazi(somethin

Ciel Phantomhive vs. Artemis Fowl

  Don't laugh. XD The similarities between the two characters are so distinct and obvious that comparison is inevitable for anyone who's read/watched both series. I seriously thought when I first noticed Black Butler(more popularly referred to as Kuroshitsuji) that it was literally an anime adaption of Artemis Fowl.  Other people have read Artemis Fowl and thought "CIEL HAS A CLONE??!?" So I thought I'd outline some of the differences and analyze who would win. XD Similarities: Appearance:  This is the first similarity, and one of the most major, because if they didn't look so darn alike I don't think the comparison would have been as striking. The above picture of Artemis is a fanart, because there aren't really any good pictures of Artemis, and the manga style makes it more obvious. They are both from the British Isles and have black hair and blue eyes. Both of them lose/change/switch an eye resulting in two different colors.
