Thanks to Lucasfilm’s nod of approval, ThinkGeek’s got a treat for every Jedi’s snuggly-wuggly-cuddly-just-ten-more-minutes-please-mom side. I wanna throw a sleepover to have an excuse to roll out lotsa these Tauntaun sleeping bags which “simulate the warmth of a Tauntaun carcass.”

It started out as an April Fools joke, but as it happens with most of ThinkGeek’s pranks: People wanted the real thing. So after some pleading with Lucasfilm, ThinkGeek got the blessings needed to bring us this Tauntaun sleeping bag complete with a lightsaber zipper pull. And whether it mimics that Tauntaun smell or not, I’d definitely rather spend $100 on this sleeping bag than try to make my own. [ThinkGeek —Thanks, Nat!]

We can almost see Canoe from our office window.  Its amazing that the sign is still it up.

This is  a shot if Andy’s new backdoor neighbors house.  He says they just finished building the house.  So sad.  His house in the background was fine.

I remember something about pulling up close to a semi being towed while on the way to Sun Valley with Rob and Gavin in 02, but I don’t remember who victim sleeping in the back seat was…

  1. build a bench
  2. rent a bottle of gas
  3. buy:
    • helmet
    • filler rods (matched for the cromo I’m using)
    • tungstens
    • hole saws
    • bench vice
    • bench grinder
    • pliers
