I just introduced my seven-year-old son to Star Wars Day. He’s been giggling for five minutes now. He’s a fan of puns, and Star Wars. I think this Star Wars pun just made his week. I can’t wait to introduce him to Revenge of the Fifth tomorrow. ---

I’m wearing my [Star Cats](http://shirt.woot.com/offers/star-cats?ref=sh_cnt_wp_1_13) t-shirt. My husband is wearing his “May The m\*dv/dt Be With You” t-shirt. Will do some googling later to see if I can fit the Star Wars theme into dinner without too much effort. ---
