May The 4th Be With You!!

 

I had to make sure that I popped in here to wish everyone a happy May 4th....as in May The 4th Be With You!

  This whole idea started a few years back and has spread and sort of become "a real thing." Star Wars fans world wide have now, thanks to the help of social media and web sites, embraced May the 4th as a sort of Star Wars "holiday," or at the very least a celebration day of all things Star Wars, and it's all because May the 4th... sounds very similar to "May The Force be with you."

  I'm ok with the whole idea, and in fact, I kind of love the whole idea! Why NOT use this as the day to celebrate Star Wars!? First, it just sounds cool, and fun. Second, many of the Star Wars films traditionally have been released in the month of May.

 

  I say let's go for it! This is our day! A day for fans to "say it loud, and say it proud," as a semi-famous Star Wars podcaster regularly says. Let your 'Wars flag fly! Do something Star Wars today! Have fun! Never forget the wonderful universe created by George Lucas!

 

...and May The 4th Be With You!!!
