I start a new part-time gig on Friday with Trailside Liquor in New Prague. I hope It will help with some of the bills while I find an "A" job. http://www.trailsideliquor.com/ here is the link to the place. It is actually a really nice store with a lot to offer, and the owners are really nice people.

See the Movie Trailer here: http://starwars.com/
I have seen a lot of good things about this, it sounds like the movie will develop Anikin's character to make his turn to the "Dark Side" become more disturbing. Maybe this is the format all the prequels should have been done in. This movie is also leading into a full television series on Cartoon Network starting in the fall of 2008. (FUN!)
Have fun! And don't forget the sunscreen. read more
