This will contain additions to my original Revenge of the Sith page, including related links and other stuff I found interesting since I saw the flick -- if you know of any blogs or web pages which might prove analytical enough (meaning not too superficial), whether in pro or in con, yet also not 20 web pages long), please contact me -- I'll check them out and perhaps add the link here. Hey, you might even want to apply for my Internet award for creativity -- AWARD INFORMATION LINK

24 April 2005 / Tuesday -- in the radiant spectral light of pure Synchronicity at its finest, very early this morning I clicked on the name of a pal who has been on my AOL Buddy List like forever, for about 5-6+ years, at least, and had been popping up a lot recently -- in computer terms that time span roughly translates into 4 Mac computers ago, since I always usually transfer all my old stuff from the previous to my new toy. We hadn't had contact for at least that number of years. We got around to reminiscing a bit about what we had been doing in the old daze, sort of to re-establish a recognizable benchmark, then going on to more recent stuff just to catch up on what we had gotten into since then -- we went on for a couple hours, and the Sun was coming up here in Trenton when we finally decided it was snooze time -- I may have gotten a couple hours in since then, but right here at this damn puter toy!
I clicked him off the URL of my new -- 
-- page, and he then clicked me the links to a couple pics related
to this same recent topic -- 
-- OMG! He went to a special preview showing in California
on Saturday, 7 May
2005 -- almost two weeks before its public
premiere --
but the story did not end there -- do you know what and where The Presidio is? It's one of those old military bases that were decommissioned in 1994, and it has taken the mili / government this long to figure out what to do with the abandoned real estate other than establish another national park (and probably a bunch of hotdog and souvenir atands and a golf course)!
Well, part of that particular land, some
23 acres worth, right smack on San
Francisco Bay, with a fabulous view of
the Golden Gate Bridge, is the new corporate headquarters of none other than
George
Lucas, who has grandiose plans for a new
campus and other facilities. Several other major companies and
small businesses have relocated there, while restoratin of the
buildings has continued -- Jay literally bumped
into George that evening -- 
-- some dudes have all the luck! He said I could use his pics,
so I did, slightly altered from his originals -- thanks, Jay,
I am still as green as a Yoda with envy!
This encounter of the renewed contact kind also stimulated me to start this second Revenge of the Sith page, with links and other related goodies that I run across in my surfing. No lengthy spiel about any of them, just a link -- I've seen many, but these stand out as particularly interesting -- I think that the didactic exploratory / hands on / laboratory approach is much more conducive to learning and retention than being spoon fed, no matter what the subject matter.
27 April 2005 / Friday -- would you believe? Now Greenspan is a Jedi Master!
30 April 2005 / Monday -- Orange appears to be a popular very multi faceted cell phone service provider in the UK -- they have a Star Wars package deal, and on that page you will find a kewl Character Quiz in the Extras section --
there are about 15
simple questions having multiple choice
answers -- my results were -- 
-- try it and see what character you match with. I wonder which
one would be the most positive, and assume that Palpatine might be
the badest ?
