The kids have been so excited lately at the grocery store because of the Star Wars Episode III marketing effort. That is right, a marketing effort has them excited. As we cruise through the store, they bubble over in excitement as they spy a new product. Wildly, they exclaim something like "Star Wars Cheetos!' This is despite the fact that Michael can't eat Cheetos, and Alex doesn't like them, but boy were the overjoyed to see them.
Alex has taken a fondness for the gentle giants of the Star Wars universe, the Wookies. He see these 7 foot tall hairy behemoths not as some alien with a penchant for screaming; he sees them as "Space Grizzlies!" After all, they look like bears and are from outer space; Grizzlies are brown bears and these "space bears" are always brown, therefore they are "Space Grizzlies!" Cheers,
RAP

Here are the postcards that were sent to Michael and Alex's grandparents and greatgrandparents via Cardstore.com. I think of them as a mixture of public relations and propaganda. Read enough of their lives, and you can consider yourself a virtual grandparent/aunt/uncle. There are worse things.
