The Cranes Take No Responsibility for Jar Jar, However

The Cranes Take No Responsibility for Jar Jar, However

May 30

For those seeking to clothe themselves in the ultimate insider-y Star Wars reference, here is an awesome t-shirt.

I happened upon this baby on my recent trip to the Bay Area. It was being modeled by a cardboard cut-out Stephen Colbert in Pendragon and I had to have it immediately. I used to see these cranes every day on my commute. They sort of announce your return to the East Bay, all cool and crazy and beast-like. Anyway, I always loved them because they reminded me of the AT-AT Imperial Walkers. Then someone told me (upon seeing my shirt) that the cranes were actually one of the big AT-AT inspirations, as Bay Arean Lucas used to drive past them all the dang time. I don’t know if this is true or urban geek legend, but it certainly is plausible.

So anyway, here we have a tee that shows off my Oakland allegiance whilst also possibly making a sly geekian reference. Not too shabby.
