The 501st goes to the Rose Parade

Well this is unexpected, but totally cool. Many, many congrats to the 501st as a whole, and to the members of the 501st that are going to be marching in this upcoming Rose Parade.

You can read about it here: The Subject Was Roses...and Stormtroopers

While I am an unabashed Star Wars Geek (go figure!) I've always been proud of what the members of the 501st have been able to do. There were many, many days that I was in the hospital growing up that I would have given anything to see a squad of Storm Troopers walk down the hallways of the hospital and get to meet Darth Vader.

I'd probably have asked him to force choke a few of the Doctors while he was there. =)
