Sometimes My Life Is Funny.

I work in a comic book store. But then if you're reading this, you probably know that bit.

Anyhow. . .

In said comic book store we have a display window currently dedicated to Star Wars Episode III, in preparation for it's theater release in May. It contains various toys and books and what not.

The other night I'm working register. A group of young guys (mid 20's I'm guessing) come into the store. Nice group, joke amongst themselves make some purchases, politely thank me after I've rung them up and leave.

In less than a minute they come back into the store. One of them comes straight up to me at the register, looks me square in the eyes and with a seriosness reserved for the most dire of situations says;

"I need a light saber."

Sometimes, I love my job.
