Return of the Jedi

With the recent box office success of Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith, Lightsabers have found their way into Toy'R'us again. Jedi wannabes can apparently be found everywhere, sometimes in the most unlikely of places. Today, one of them found his way into our little nodescript cubicle tucked in a dusty corner of the office.

Higher power had popped in for a short chat...
Perhaps he feels there is inadquate communication between the little people on Naboo and those in Mustafar. After the usual progress report and updates, we ran out of common topics. There was awkward laughter and weak attempts at keeping the ball rolling when.. As all Jedis do when they run out of ideas, Higher Power whipped out his lightsaber! He made a valiant attempt at prolonging the conversation by asking us if we had watched the new movie and how we felt about it. To top it all off, he dished out a few sentences of Yoda speak, revealing little nuggets of family life like " 3 little boys i have", "One wife i have" and " Stay positive we must". Oh boy..

I can imagine him in a mock battle with his little boys. He'll be bouncing around like Yoda, wielding his green lightsaber with much relish, while the poor boys would be playing the Sith.
