I mean, this written word thing is really workin' for ya. Let's set up a lunch with my agent at Mr. Chow, next, hmm... Tuesday? Will that work for you?

Luke Skywalker has returned to his home planet of Tatooine in an attempt to rescue his friend Han Solo from the clutches of the vile gangster Jabba the Hutt." So, Han hardly stays frozen "for most of that movie." Just sayin'. Nick, baby, first of all – LOVE the blog. I mean, this written word thing is really workin’ for ya.
