Given the two subjects that have gotten the bulk of my attention lately, I was greatly amused by a line in the new issue of Newsweek:
Now that we’ve learned how Anakin became Darth Vader and who Deep Throat really was, can we finally close the book on the ’70s?
I didn’t think that book was still open, myself, but it does seem like a lot of loose ends are getting tied up lately, doesn’t it? Star Trek, Star Wars, the final mystery of Watergate… what’s next, for someone to dig up Jimmy Hoffa’s body? How about finding Jim Morrison alive and well on Fiji? Is a Sasquatch about to wander into downtown Portland, or will a Scottish fisherman finally manage to land Nessie? Keep watching the skies, kids, because you never know…
