Happy New Year, one and all!! After an absolutely incredible Holiday season, it’s back to the grindstone.

So I finally got to see Star Wars The Last Jedi and when the movie ended, my wife asked me what I thought. My response was a simple, but unexpected three words… I don’t know… I’d seen some reviews going in, and heard opinions on both sides of the spectrum. So I went in with a cautious optimism.

Dear Jim, I’ve read some of your other posts and was wondering if you had any advice for me. A lot of your other posts have taken stabs at identity politics. I think you and I fall on opposite ends of the spectrum, but I figured I’d give this a shot.
