That right you heard it right.  Walmart Blows!  I went there early this morning hoping for a miracle and what did I find?  The same 10 Padme Pilots and Jangos, plus about 50 Cantina Packs.  I asked a stockperson in Toys if he could check the back.  He scanned one of the pegs and told me that the inventory showed about 100 figs.  With only 10 or so figs on the peg I got excited thinking I was finally going to score.  So he went out back and returned empty handed.  The verdict?  No figs on the floor til the pegs had been cleared.  Do you believe it?  I wonder how many more stores are sitting on product.  I was fully prepared to spend a good chunk of change but they did not want my money.  Whats going to happen?  The figs will probably be returned for credit in the future, leaving us collectors empty handed and making twice as much work for Walmart to return the items in the future.  Where is the logic?

I am officially back in the SW community and think I will set up home here at JD.  It seems like alot of old familiar faces are hanging out here which I have really missed over the last half year.  Just wanted to send out a big hey to all those that have helped me out these past several years and especially the last several months.  Special thanks go out to OCB and Jedimac for welcoming me back.  

My son is 19 months old and all I can say is that his mannerisms and things he does totally mirror myself.  Its amazing how genes are past down.  At times it is a frightening reality with pure humor mixed right in.  Not only is he a spitting image of myself, but all those little things my parents say I did as a kid are playing out through him now.  Its like your parents always said:  "I hope your kids are just like you were."
