Where Darth goes on his day off

So, a couple weekends ago, Steve and I decided to take a leisurely stroll along the Coronado beach. This beach is divided in half by a rock jetty in front of the Hotel del Coronado. As I am coming up over this jetty, I see something I really, really didn't expect. I saw Darth Vader, Storm Troopers, and other various Star Wars costumed beings. Hmm.

After some at-home research, we found that there is some big group of people called the 501st Legion, and we think this may have been a local chapter. This group is an avid Star Wars costume group.

You can see a whole slew of pictures here, or just click here to see a great shot of Darth and pals with their surf boards. Only in California, right? Also, Steve and I are in the background. We are all the way on the right, just above that guy's shoulder.


Talking cats

Next to Panda Sneezes, this is my next favorite thing on YouTube. The cat at the end with the subtitles is the best. You MUST have speakers for this one.


Evil Genius

So some of you didn't think that last quiz & blog entry was funny (MOM!), and I doubt some of you will like this one, too (MOM!). This quiz is one from work. We're publishing a book called Evil Genius by Catherine Jinks, and she and our Internet Marketing department came up with this Axis Institute for World Domination web site, complete with quiz. Enjoy!

I am 100% evil! Are you an Evil Genius?
