I have to thank you for being the only one besides my husband to give me credit for that quote. I know it's not accurate as far as ST#'s go, but thought I'd get points for the 1138 reference (along with Hamlet of course). ;) Sorry I made you jealous though. Hopefully they'll do something fun for the opening that you can be here for. :)

Thanks for the mention!

Hey, we don't know they call signs of all the Stormtroopers. I'm sure your TK1138 is (or was) out there, perhaps he was done in by a menacing assassin droid in the Kathol Sector... the possibilities are endless!

As for a Star Tours event that I could attend, here's hoping!

As always, thank you. The students did weeks of preparation so there was no way to fake it. Had to add value. I would wonder what your tour would be like. Try the tour card concept. It is fun.
