It could be worse....

Every now and then I get an urge to feel sorry for myself and sink into a long depression because my relationships never work out, or I'm feeling pudgy compared to half of San Francisco, or I miss my dog, or my car breaks down again and again, or I'm frustrated that I'm not a best-selling novelist yet...

But after reading this article, I don't think I'll whine for awhile.

Fett Accompli: Simple Plan Salutes Boba

Of all the films in the saga, Simple Plan guitarist Sébastien Lefebvre ranks The Empire Strikes Back as his favorite. "Empire ultimately made me a huge fan, probably because of all the scenes with the snow, the AT-ATs and Boba Fett," Lefebvre explains. "It was something different at the time. There were heroes and bad guys and we could play Star Wars. It was a big part of every kid's childhood."

"It's easy to identify with the heroes even if they are in space because of the ever-present good against evil struggle," Lefebvre continues. "Star Wars was one of the first films to have all the big special effects. So even if you didn't like it, you had no choice but to be impressed."
