Well, it's been a couple weeks since the last edition of Random Weekend Star Wars fun. Sure I could blame the delay on a number of things like, work, family, my new dependency on insta-doppler weather maps and so forth. But today we'll simply choose snow. We've had three blizzards in one season here in the mid-Atlantic, shattering all sorts of records for the region. If I can't use Mother Nature as an excuse now, I'll never be able to. Enjoy!

Rebelscum Breast Cancer Awareness Charity Patch Posted By Philip on November 25, 2014: Thanks to everybody that ordered patches. I sent a check for $1,600.00 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation on Monday. While it's not as much as I hoped for, it's still very much appreciated. They will remain for sale in the store for anybody that still wishes to purchase them. Details after the jump.
