I find myself being a much bigger fan of the recent SW games than of the recent SW movies. Only "Rogue One" did I find to be well done. SW has been MUCH better on the small screen with "The Mandalorian". Agreed, and I thought Andor was also well done.

I noticed this morning that it was 14 years ago (2010) today that my oldest son was sworn in as a USMC recruit. So I asked him if it was intentional that he was sworn in on Star Wars day given that he is a big SW fan. He laughed and said no he didn't realized that at the time. Then we looked it up and "May The Forth" only became a Star Wars thing a year later, in 2011.

Nice story F4U. Is your son still active duty? No. Married, 2 sons.

Same. He became a bit disillusioned given the political climate at the time. Once a marine, always a marine. Yep.
