Well, the good news is U.S. Christmas holiday retail sales were up 4% from the previous year, despite all the doom and gloom.  

Interesting and well written stuff.

IIRC, the character of Maz Kenata was created in response to a studio note saying that there weren’t enough female characters in the film. Same reason why Stormtrooper Brienne was created, as I recall.

I’ll drink to that!

This is sobering news. Luckily, there is a remedy for that.

Nice to see drinking oneself to a drunken stupor is timeless. 

5,000 years ago is a little tough: pretty much all they were doing was spending an hour or two every day breaking pottery for us to later study.

I would not go around telling folks about that. The fine is pretty big.

I had completely forgotten Lube Man even existed until just now. Even in memory, he’s a slippery character.

Excited for Jurassic Park

I’m told the free market will fix this.
