The last movie I remember paying to see at a drive in was Total Recall while I was on vacation in Michigan and Illinois.

After that, though, a drive in near me started showing some pretty racy R-rated sex romps, and the screen was visible from across the highway…

Eventually, they got in trouble with the city for that, and reverted to low-budget Sci Fi and fantasy films.

A Lich is also known as a abracadaver.

Not my best work. I heard abracadaver, and had to get it out in the wider world.

I killed the transmission in my car tonight. Two years ago the engine blew and now the transmission. To add injury to insult, I hurt my knee try to move the car.

I really would like to have some good news to share. It seems it's all been bad news lately. I suppose this will have to do. I can taste stuff again. It only lasted a couple of days. Oh, and I lost a few pounds while I was sick. I still don't have an appetite like I did. I'm hoping it'll last awhile and I can lose some more weight.

I don't think my knee is broken. I can walk and it supports my weight. It just hurts like hell when I bend it. No swelling or cuts, or visible bruises. I took a pain reliever hoping it'll help me get some rest.

Our family lost a combined 200lbs or so after two consecutive years in which we all got sick during Lent- and nobody had the same illness as anyone else in the house, so we were all staying away from each other as much as possible. Appetite loss was a BIG part of our losses.

After the second year of that, we made conscious decisions as to how to keep off what we lost & continue losing. Carbonated drinks are almost eliminated. Salads are a more regular part of the diet. Snacks were cut down in size and frequency. We got serious about portion control.

That last part is where we made the most obvious headway. Before we got sick, it was not uncommon for each of us to put away a 10-16oz steak in one sitting if we were having steak. These days, if I’m cooking steaks, I’ll typically do two 1 pounders, and slice them up…and we’ll get 1-2 meals out of them between us. I used to eat 4 pieces of fried chicken in a meal; that’s halved.

I've had this Jedi character concept for awhile now. He's a Jedi that survived the purge. He has a young apprentice he's trying to protect and train. The apprentice is a girl disguised as a boy named Lu. I came up with a name for the Jedi today, Pella Din. I like it. Sounds like paladin. The young one would be Lu Din. Does that name work? These are their assumed names. Their real names are lost to history.

This started when I had this scene in my head. A small group of Jedi met hoping to form a defense against Darth Vader and the Empire. The group was attacked by Vader. One Jedi stood to hold Vader while others escaped. I envisioned it playing out as the others feeling the death of their friend and describing it like this. A single candle shown brightly against the darkness, then suddenly snuffed out, lost in the darkness.
