Biting your thumb was like flipping someone the bird, in medieval times.<br /><br />Rusty: I bet you played Ashley, didn't you? He was a goody-goody.<br /><br />Andrew: Even if you didn't want to, eventually you would incorporate "Star Wars" into House. That's the gravitational pull of Star Wars.<br /><br />Liz:<br /><br />What's going to be amazing is that it's going to continue into the next century, I bet. Even close seconds, like Star Trek, haven't come close to being referenced as often.Brianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01616494058636881575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702621.post-88377311808417553882014-01-28T10:20:46.871-12:002014-01-28T10:20:46.871-12:00The fact that people still know Star Wars tells yo...The fact that people still know Star Wars tells you all you need to know, really.<br /><br />Now I have a hankering to go to YouTube and watch Hardware Wars...Liz A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16531953467834426316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702621.post-65670496382265369492014-01-28T10:19:19.666-12:002014-01-28T10:19:19.666-12:00This comment has been removed by the author.Liz A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16531953467834426316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702621.post-77651049172640919352014-01-28T08:19:34.149-12:002014-01-28T08:19:34.149-12:00That's a great video.

My boys tend to be on top of that stuff as soon as it happens, so I've already seen it a bunch.<br /><br />I'm preparing for the future; that's why I have Star Wars references in House.Andrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702621.post-7263887888321377022014-01-28T06:32:29.964-12:002014-01-28T06:32:29.964-12:00I hope you've SEEN the video, since I know you...I hope you've SEEN the video, since I know you have a thing about them.

And then drink poison or stab ourselves with a dagger! I can see why that hasn't taken off with 7-year-olds yet.PT Dillowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394481476862013009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702621.post-23494069500972954062014-01-28T03:29:41.989-12:002014-01-28T03:29:41.989-12:00Robin:

Apparently I learned about it sometime in the past, but cannot be bothered to store in my brain both the name of the thing and what the thing means.<br /><br />I have the same problem with my kids.Brianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01616494058636881575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702621.post-14832010873690368312014-01-28T03:28:53.419-12:002014-01-28T03:28:53.419-12:00Oh, SNAP.

I've been Dillowayed!<br /><br />Then again, while Superman has lasted 75 years, Romeo & Juliet has lasted what, 500 or something?<br /><br />But neither of them is so frequently referenced as Star Wars. A google search of 'superman cello' turns up only this:<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzBMjAUFO_U<br /><br />which is interesting in its own way, but not quite the cultural homage the other video is. Plus I think the kid's name is "cello."<br /><br />Brianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01616494058636881575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702621.post-42416584863337805842014-01-28T03:28:37.614-12:002014-01-28T03:28:37.614-12:00This is my second Piano Guys video.
