T-bones Star Wars Universe – The Empire Strikes Back – Seven Pieces.

I had always imagined I had hallucinated seeing this scene, but I distinctly remember watching ESB in Hawaii as a kid in the theaters, and seeing this scene that I never saw in any other release (DVD, laserdisc, VHS).

My current working theory is that this “cut” scene was actually stuck into a few prints that found their way into the wild back in 1980.

Anyone else who saw ESB in Hawaii theaters have the same memory?

Okay, so I finally broke down and got an iPad. I justify it mostly as a game machine, an eReader and a bedside computer for watching videos (AirVideo – a must have).

Anyway, the keyboard isn’t the greatest thing in the world, but I’m getting used to it. As a touch typist, I feel a bit hampered, but for hunt and peckers, it’s probably just right. Using the iPad wordpress app, it doesn’t look like there is any way to put in hyperlinks, but that may just be hidden somewhere not obvious.

We’ll see if this ends up being something useful for blogging. On my wish list so far – a working sametime client, a text editor that syncs with files on my MacBook, and a way to sync separate ipads with different “notes” (as it stands, multiple devices synced to the same Mac all hit the same backend for the notes app on the iPad).
