Han Solo Beats Up Indiana Jones, Granby and East Granby Public Library Skeds and More

Good morning, Granby and East Granby! Today is Aug. 12, 2013; there are 141 days left in the year.

Hey, ever wonder who would win in a fight between Han Solo and Indiana Jones? Yeah, me too. However, my “friends” - if I can really call them that - always make the same two points whenever I pose the question to them, which is about once every two hours.

First, these “friends” say that neither Han Solo, nor Indiana Jones is real. Yeah. OK. Next you’re going to tell me that “Jaws” wasn’t a nature documentary about the dangers of swimming in the ocean lest a 25-foot great white shark devours you whole. Or that a Sharknado couldn’t happen in nature. Look I've seen them on TV. That stuff is real.

Second, and this is pathetic, people say that Indiana Jones and Han Solo are essentially the same dude. Really? Then how come Indiana Jones isn’t married to Princess Leia? Doy!

My money is on Han. After all, he made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parecs. Case and closed.

Why, yes, I really am married, why do you ask?

Here are five things for the week ahead:

1. All public meetings this week in East Granby (board of education, planning and zoning and board of selectmen) have been canceled.

2. Origami Earrings at the Granby Public Library today at 1 p.m. Awesome.

3. Make Your Own Sundae Party at the Cossitt Library on Aug. 14 at 6:30 p.m.

4. People, we can all agree that breakdancing and Shakespeare, taken on their own merits, are freakin’ awesome. But when you put the two together? Mind and blown.
