The Top 12 Jedi Commandments
10> Thou shalt not seek out these droids. These are not the droids you are looking for.
9> Thou shalt never bring up the fact that Bea Arthur and Harvey Korman sang a cabaret musical number in the “Star Wars Holiday Special.”
8> Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife, but thy sister is fair game, especially if she’s wearing that gold lame number!
7> Honor thy uncle and thy aunt, until such time as you happen upon their charred skeletal remains.
6> Thou shalt not overact, yea, nor even act sufficiently unto the day.
5> Thou shalt not go into Toshi Station to pick up some power converters.
4> Thou shalt leave well enough alone, Lucas… Hey, I’m talking to THEE!
3> Thou shalt not play “lightsaber fight” while at the communal urinal.
2> Thou shalt shoot first, and makest it to look like self-defense in a later edition.
and the Number 1 Jedi Commandment…
1> Talk like Yoda shalt thou not unless Yoda thou art, hmmm?
