I never realized 'this' day was dedicated to Star Wars from that far back!  When my kids were in school March 14 was always a big day- it was Pi day. Teachers would bring in all sorts of pies to celebrate 3.14!!

I must admit hearing it this morning was a first for me and I still remember standing in line back in Jr. high to see the first Star Wars so I was aware of Margaret Thatcher back in 1979, especially since I have followed politics even back in my first grade year of 1968.   What memories of that time Star Wars and Jaws, the originals not the sequels.

I remember going to see the movie when it first came out here in L.A.  Back in the 1970's. 

 

Now, much younger generations are making such a big deal about the recent release when they weren't even born for the several episodes made.  I won't go to see it because it no longer holds interest for me.  It's the past, my past, my memories, done. 


 

@Puzzle Piece

Even if they weren't here to see the original

episodes they might've seen them.  Great

tradition of movies imho.

You bet!! This past one I went to the most expensive bakery in town and bought a high calorie and high tasting piece of San Francisco Cream Pie.   Ummmm, I may have to pretend today is Pi Day instead of Star Wars day.

Re: 💥May The 4th Be With You!💥

Did anyone see the episode when The Big Bang Theory was celebrating May the Fourth be with you. It was funny and I don't remember when I first heard of it.

 

3.14 is a national holiday - I made a pie and brought it to work along with 2 other coworkers - we all enjoyed
