Reading is Fundamental

Some of our troops went to a reading program out in Lowell yesterday to help out and give the kids a special treat. I love the first pic, and seeing 2 levels of Jawa in a latter pic:

That's awesome. They must have made their day. And what a better way to be influenced to read than by Darth?

"Read...or die."

Man, the temptation to put together skits of that nature would just be overwhelming.

(Vader enters the room. An Imperial Officer stands there, with a row of Stormtroopers, all reading furiously)

Officer: "Lord Vader, this is an unexpected pleasure. We're honored by your presence."

Vader: "You may dispense with the pleasantries, Commander. I'm here to put you back on schedule."

Officer: "I assure you, Lord Vader. My men are reading as fast as they can."

Vader: "Perhaps I can find new ways to....motivate them."

And so forth....you could turn quite a bit of episodes IV through VI into book-themed humor. :-)

Vader: "The power even of the force is insignifigant when compared to the power of reading..."

Did the teacher spell "helmut" wrong? ;)

Nah, she was just referring to Boba Fett's dog, Helmut.
