HAHA! I am the only mexican who lives on my street and the only one that actually cuts their own yard. All the other people on my street have a lawn service do it. The funny thing all the lawn service workers are also mexican so when they first saw me cutting my own lawn they thought some other lawn cutting service was trying to get in on their territory so they kept giving me dirty looks all the time. Once I spoke to them and told them that I actually live in the house and that I just like to cut my own yard, we all had a pretty good laugh, haha.

Mike - That Disney trip is sounding more and more fun everytime you write about it! Can't wait to go over there sometime and experience it for myself! Stephen Hayford is selling some exclusive prints duing the SW weekends that look really awesome. Wish I could grab one of them!

Sweet!

Dude that's funny as hell. People crack me up.

Yeah the Star Wars weekend is alway a lot of fun. This will be our second time. Def wanna hit the revamped Star Tours ride. Should be great. Gotta check out that artist. Hopefully his stuff is not too expensive. We'll see.

Yeah just got home and found my shirtpunch package in the mail with my "Walking Droids" t-shirt. It's a mash up between Walking Dead and Star Wars. Wife just called and said she's on her way home with the SS box. You guys have a great weekend and I'll talk to you all when we get back.

Just got the Statue out and put together. It's now in my big display case next to the Leg scale Obi bust. Oh man this baby is sweet. I'll try to get some pics up as soon as I get back. I'm so glad I ordered this one.

Morning guys. Up bright and early this morning. We made great time yesterday. got to Orlando in 8 hours. Smooth sailing. Got checked into the hotel and went right over to Disney Village and hit once upon a toy to do the Build A Droid. man that was fun. Tons of different parts. They have packages for singles and doubles. Wife and I did a double pack. Cool stuff.
Next we headed over to Mike's Comics. That's the guy we got the animated Yoda statue and Anakin podracer statue at CVI. Didn't get to see his store last time. Wow it was an amazing comic shop. He just about has more Star Wars stuff for sale than we have in our collection. Anyway got a 21-B and Plo Koon mini busts. I could have spent a fortune in there but had to control myself.

Hi all. Got back Sunday afternoon. The wife and I had a great time. Got some cool stuff. Didn't spend too much and glad we didn't because when we got home we got some bad news. One of our best friends who is no longer a best friend had been renting our other house to own. She had 3 years to go and I would have signed it over to her. We get home and there's a note on my kitchen counter that says" I'm in love and off to California to be with him" We tried to talk to her, text her, everything to find out what was up but she just packed her car and left. We went over to the house and it was unlocked, a mess and she left her dog. We are still in shock and now have lots to do. She also screwed over her work and a bunch of others. I'm having an open house yard sale on Sat and selling everything. She left all her furniture, 3 bedrooms full. Totally crazy. she just lost it and srewed everyone, us the worst.

Oh my god man! Why do people do these kinds of things? Is there anything you guys can do to track her down? People make me so mad sometimes.Disgusting.

Good to hear you at least enjoyed your weekend though.

What a way to end a vacation. So sorry you have to go through that, Mike. I hope the cleanup and sale go smoothly. I know you have alot on your plate ATM, but when you get a chance, definitely post how the vacation was. We'd love to hear about it.
