Star Wars Is Everywhere: Episode XLV Posted By Mike on July 6, 2011
Ewan's mad lightsaber skills, a Yoda classroom, a Blue Harvest reference, McQuarrie art, Yoda Pasties, a variety of lists, and a few videos await in the latest edition of Star Wars is Everywhere.
Ewan McGregor has been doing the media rounds while promoting his new film Beginners. While visiting The Graham Norton Show on the BBC, Ewan not only talked of initial reluctance before accepting the role of Obi-Wan, but also displayed his mad lightsaber skills. Check out the video!
In addition, we offer up a hearth TFN congrats to Ewan and his wife who have recently adopted a new baby girl. (Thanks Shane!)
Our friend Mike F. wants you to take notice of the coffee shop's name in the Audi commercial below.
Thanks Mike!

DonorsChoose.org gives us a peak at Mr. Manks Yoda class. And just what is DonorsChoose.org? Here's what the website has to say...
"DonorsChoose.org is an online charity that makes it easy for anyone to help students in need.
Here's how it works: public school teachers from every corner of America post classroom project requests on DonorsChoose.org. Requests range from pencils for a poetry writing unit, to violins for a school recital, to microscope slides for a biology class.
Then, you can browse project requests and give any amount to the one that inspires you. Once a project reaches its funding goal, we deliver the materials to the school.
You'll get photos of your project taking place, a thank-you letter from the teacher, and a cost report showing how each dollar was spent. If you give over $100, you'll also receive hand-written thank-you letters from the students.
At DonorsChoose.org, you can give as little as $1 and get the same level of choice, transparency, and feedback that is traditionally reserved for someone who gives millions. We call it citizen philanthropy." (Thanks Paul!)
Yoda pasties. Now you've officially seen everything! (Thanks Jay!)
