A loss in the family

[zenmondo]

So Conor wanted to play with his brand new radio-controlled Jeep. So we did. He also wanted to load it up with Star Wars action figures. So we did. In the course of playing with said radio-controlled jeep, one of the figures got lost. Chewbacca is no longer with us. It was a Chewbacca figure older than Conor is. It is either the Chewbacca I had as a boy in the 70s, or the reproduction of Chewie from 1995. I am not sure which. I think its the '95 Chewie from the color I noticed when he was not missing. There is a very small area in which he got lost, but I combed it for over 20 minutes with no luck whatsoever.

But lets keep things in perspective. Conor and I had a lot of fun losing him. :)

So speaking of radio-controlled toythings, I learned from a Ludwig von Drake cartoon last night where the word radio comes from. Its "oidar" spelled backwards you see.
