Yahoo ^

Posted on 05/01/2012 8:06:16 AM PDT by Perdogg

Obi-Wan Kenobi was always a bit of a rogue Jedi, even lamenting his own former lack of patience during a dramatic exchange with Yoda in "The Empire Strikes Back."

Back in my teenaged days, I outran the cops - twice - in a 1963 Rambler classic.

I learned to drive in one of those. Yours must have had the V8, the six would only outrun a cop if he was on a bicycle.

Unfortunately the cop was driving a Chrysler Imperial Cruiser.

Let me know when they get Chewie for rape.

It’s sad how he keeps victimizing the President.
