May the Fourth ... Can You Remember?

... When "Star Wars" was the name of a movie?

... The first time you picked up a wrapping-paper tube, and were struck by the urge to wave it in the air while humming?

... Ewoks were stupid ... until you realized they ATE PEOPLE? 

... "There is another" was an unsolved puzzle?

... Nobody could figure out what Yoda was saying? 

... It was OK to stand for hours in a blocks-long line, in the sun, to pay $2.50, to see a movie you'd already seen five or ten times?

... Darth Vader was a bad guy?

See you Monday with another musical compilation.

 

Welcome to Mark’s Musical May Mondays! MAYDAY, MAYDAY! MA-99 – Witches’ Boo!

            Every Monday this month we’ll have a new musical compilation for your delectation.

            Yesterday, April 30, was Walpurgisnacht.  As Bram Stoker wrote in “Dracula’s Guest,”

“Walpurgis Night was when, according to the belief of millions of people, the devil was abroad—when the graves were opened and the dead came forth and walked. When all evil things of earth and air and water held revel.”
