Han Solo Lives! thanks to George Lucas not wanting a downer ending
I love Harrison Ford but am not a fan of him saying this-
"As a character he was not so interesting to me. I thought he should have died in the last one, just to give it some bottom. George [Lucas] didn't think there was any future in dead Han toys."
OK- I have heard a longer version of this and Harrison thought Han should have gone out a hero in Jedi- sacraficing himself for the rebellion. Lucas did not want a downer ending- he told Harrison-"empire was our sad one- this one is happy. CUE THE MUPPETS!"
ok so I made up the cue the muppet part.
Hey Harrison- dissapointed you still wish Han Solo dead but Indiana Jones fighting aliens and surving a nuclear blast in a fridgedaire is OK. No one wanted Han dead because you played him so well. We don't want Indy dead either but- let's get him back to reality though please!
Here is a pic to remind you of the awesomeness of Han Solo
And you thought you had a rough day!
Check out: "Demolished Tower Falls in the Wrong Direction, Cuts Power to 4,000 Homes" - www.asylum.com
http://www.asylum.com/2010/11/11/mad-river-power-plant-tower-falls/?icid=asylum-iphone-url
Stuff blowing up is always exciting, right? Except when the tower you're blowing up falls in the wrong direction.
You know, a landing-on-live-power-lines-and-damaging-an-electrical-outhouse kind of direction that cuts off power to 4,000 homes. And did we mention there were kids nearby watching the event? Well, that too.
As you'll see from the footage below, the 83-foot Mad River Power Plant Tower in Springfield, Ohio, topples into live wires and sparks jolt out as the crowd members scream and run for their lives.
"It just started leaning the other way and I thought, Holy cow. It was terrifying for a little bit," fireman John Roeder said.
But why did it happen? It seems there was an undetected crack in the side of the tower, which forced it the wrong way. As for the town's blackout, it knocked out traffic lights and even caused a car accident.
Check out the shocking clip below.

This is NOT how you bag a deer
Some friends were deer hunting over the weekend- a few bagged a deer. (hope I get a little venison) and it's the time of year - hitting one with your car becomes more common- since they are all running away from the gunfire. I even had a friend who once literally knocked the crap out of one all over his car.
I thankfully never got caught off guard by a "flying deer"- keep reading-
Flying deer batters Minn family A New Ulm couple and their teenage daughter are battered and bruised, but grateful to have survived an extraordinary encounter with a deer.
Chris and Susan Blake and their 17-year-old daughter, Olivia, driving on a Blue Earth County highway last weekend when an oncoming car struck a deer directly in front of them. The small buck became airborne and crashed through the windshield of the Blakes’ Pontiac Vibe.
The deer hit Chris in the face, then glanced off Sue in the front passenger seat before striking Olivia in the back seat. The deer’s momentum carried it right out the back window.
KARE-TV reports Chris suffered numerous broken bones in his face. Susan had scratches to her face and some bruising. Olivia suffered a broken nose and fractured cheek. She’s hoping to heal fast, in time to play the lead in the New Ulm High School play in two weeks.

FINNALLY-the chip companies are reading my suggestions
THIS IS THE COOLEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN!

Give a "toot" and get the boot!
My nephew got suspended for his pants hanging down and "crackin'" a smile so this is not surprising.
Check out: "Boy Gets Detention for Farting ... and It Makes the News" - www.asylum.com
http://www.asylum.com/2010/11/02/christian-summers-detention-for-farting/?icid=asylum-iphone-url
We've all been scolded for letting one rip at an inopportune moment by those who obviously don't appreciate the refined subtleties of flatulence humor.
But has one of your farts ever been so forceful that you received a formal reprimand for it? Even better, has one ever made the news? No? Then you've just been outdone by an 11-year-old boy.
Christian Summers was traveling back to his Cleveland home on the school bus recently, when he let one slip, which, understandably, made him laugh.
However, the bus driver didn't find his antics amusing and gave him a discipline warning and an hour of detention.
Christian's parents said they thought the punishment stunk (sorry) so bad that they went to the local TV news station ... which, in turn, ran a two-minute report on the fart and its fallout (not like that).
Keep reading to watch the amazing report, during which it's revealed that Christian now "fears his flatulence."

From Real World to the Political World!
Met Sean years ago at the State Fair- he was in a lumberjack expo- nice guy.
Check out: "True Story: 'Real World' Star Sean Duffy Wins House Seat in Wisconsin" - PopEater.com
http://www.popeater.com/2010/11/03/sean-duffy-house-wisconsin-real-world-boston/?icid=popeater-iphone-url
The glass ceiling for reality stars in Congress has been shattered, thanks to 'Real World: Boston' standout Sean Duffy, a Republican who picked up an open seat in Wisconsin's 7th District during Tuesday's big election.
Duffy, who spent 1997 finding out "what happens when people stop being polite and start getting real," easily defeated state Sen. Julie Lassa for the job in a contest to replace retiring Rep. David Obey, a Democrat who held the seat for 41 years.
The Associated Press declared Duffy the winner, and he thanked supporters at his victory party shortly before midnight. "What a great night in Wisconsin," Duffy belted.
Duffy filled the "conservative Midwesterner" spot on season 6 of the show and later participated in 'Road Rules.' During his stint as a reality TV star, he met and married 'Real World: San Francisco' beauty Rachel Campos. The couple have six children.
Syrus Yarbrough, one of Duffy's housemates on the show, has already weighed in on the victory. "Sean from my season of The Real World Boston is now a US Congressman!" he wrote on Twitter. "Congrats my brotha!"
While at the Boston firehouse, Duffy would often clash with the liberal-leaning Kameelah Phillips, and later credited the two black cast members (Phillips and Yarbrough) with helping to teach him about race issues. There was no hot tub in the house (these were more innocent times, folks), so the most scandalous thing he ever did was call Phillips a "bitch."
That said, he doesn't think his time on television should play any part in his political ambitions. "People aren't concerned about a reality show from 15 years ago," he said in a Daily Caller interview back in May.
Since leaving Boston,' Duffy appeared on 2002's version of 'Real World/Road Rules Challenge' and has made occasional appearances as an ESPN color commentator. Until recently he was the district attorney for Ashland County.
The 7th District includes all or part of 20 central and northwestern Wisconsin counties.
