How vindicated am I that in Last Stand on Jabiim, the telepathic Padawan says that he can't think around Anakin because Anakin projects so much?

Extremely vindicated.

I really don't know what it says about me that I keep confusing Obi-Wan and Yoda joining with the Force and becoming Force ghosts with Ascension. I mean, I really, really don't know.

On the other hand, hey, interesting crossovers!

My stupid local newspaper, I swear to fucking God, man.

Two pictures -- two! -- of Eisenhower's band, and nary a mention of Ellensburg's. Hi, for one, we are, in fact, the local band, and for two, we are, in fact, the BAND THAT WON.

I mean, they've been going through ownership and journalist issues, but they don't give the high school the coverage we previously got: sports, academics, and arts. Especially arts, though, because TWO PICTURES of Ike, and none of Ellensburg. Hell, on one picture they went out of their way to highlight the "E" in Ike. (They won't let me link straight to the picture. Go to that page, click on "Parade 2007", scroll down until you see the two band pictures -- it's the one with the baritone player and the silkscreen E on the tuba in the background.)

*looks at 2007 Parade archive* Oh, you have got to be fucking kidding me. They didn't even take pictures of the Ellensburg band. I mean, I just...I don't even comprehend. We're a small town. It's traditional in any small town for high school events to get a lot of coverage, and the newspaper -- with the new owners and the new employees -- isn't doing that. I mean. Is it because Ike has shinier uniforms? I mean, is it? Do they even know the story about how we got the uniforms we have? Do they think Eisenhower High School is in Ellensburg? I mean, for some reason do they honestly not understand that Ellensburg High School is, in fact, in Ellensburg?

I'm so angry I can't think straight. Angry letter writing (again!) may be in order. I was at the high school today, helping my band director prepare for the upcoming school year with a couple other seniors, and all of us were pissed off. COME ON.
