Tangent66: S7AR WARS

When I was ten years old, my brother would make my mom take us to a local baseball card/comic shop called The Dragon's Den. He was there solely to accrue his holdings in cardboard totems to athletic greats, but I was a willing participant in these trips because I was able to explore the rest of the store- and its the comic collection. Those were truly blissful days. On the wall of The Dragon's Den, seemingly 100 ft. away from my hands hung a poster encased in a gorgeous frame. Every time we went to the shop, I would ask the clerk "How much for the poster?" "Same as last time, $150." Damn, I'll never have enough money to buy that thing. I would make sure my mom overheard the exchange, hoping she would eventually have an epiphany that yes, she should buy this thing for me, and end my Sisyphean struggle. That day never happened, but the point was never to own the poster but that something so simple could represent so much value to me. Tom Jung painted something that would be ingrained in the minds of millions around the world. The poster was a symbol, the real prize was the film itself.

RICK JAMES AND SY SNOOTLES: TheJackSack™ Tangent Of The Week

This morning, I was blasting Rick James' "Give It To Me Baby" while hanging on every word from my Google Maps app in a desperate search for the nearest gas station to refuel my car. Amidst this chaos, it hit me that the horn section from this song matches perfectly with the one in "Lapti Nek" from RETURN OF THE JEDI. Out of gas, late for work, lost in the tree-lined wilderness of Connecticut, and all I could think was "Holy shit! Did John Williams rip off Rick James? Bitch!"

I eventually got gas but more importantly I found a new perspective on Rick James.
