Today
is a special day... It’s Friday! AND it's April Fools’ Day Eve!
It’s
also Obi-Wan Kenobi’s birthday!
Well, it’s Ewan McGregor’s
birthday, and regardless of whether that makes him “Newbie-Wan”, or “Only-Wan”
depending on where your STAR WARS Saga loyalties
lie, we here at Things believe that totally counts.
Without
further ado…. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MASTER KENOBI!!!!!
What
better way to celebrate the noble Jedi Knight than by joining the Rebel
Alliance? (Suit up here.)
…or chugging your morning java
from the Death Star? (Note: that’s java, the beverage… not to be confused
with Jabba the Hutt—we strongly advise against chugging anything Jabba related.
That’s just gross.)
…or
BUILDING YOUR OWN LIGHTSABER WHAT?! Yep. Construct and display this
wall-mounted light-up model (with sound!) and pick your color. I recommend
blue in honor of the birthday boy. You can change colors tomorrow should you
feel the need, or you can just do what I did and get 8 of these suckers to form
a Jedi rainbow on the wall, because why not?
On
that note, let us all raise our lightsabers in tribute to Sir McGregor (Jedi
Knight! Totally counts!) on this celebratory day: May the Force be with you
always, and may you never be tempted by the Dark Side--we hear they use expired bantha milk in those cookies they keep promising anyway...
See you next week,
Bobby
