Or who don't have a cool story about the first time they saw Star Wars in the theatre like I do. Or how their entire graduating class skipped a day to drive to Edmonton to see 'Return of the Jedi' together in the big theatre. And drank in the line waiting to get in. Good times.
That's so damn deep, but you already knew that. Star Wars in its heyday vs. now, these two, just goofin' around, having a good time, young and beautiful ...and now, us when that movie came out ...and now.
There's a solid semblance of wisdom growing as we age, but there's that we've lost. Your post has hit home Shaw's quote so perfectly: "Youth is wasted on the young."
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

....or ever WERE that cool ever.
I feel pity for kids that didn't saw the original Star Wars in Theaters. And yes, I envy Han's coolness.
