Star Trek vs Star Wars

So my daughter took me to the movies yesterday to see her favorite movie Star Wars The Force Awakens.  I am a Trekkie and in my household Star Trek ruled.   My three children knew that whenever Star Trek reruns came on the TV the rule was stop, drop and watch.   But the force was strong with this one she rebelled and joined the Resistance.
 
My daughter Aiesha is a huge Star Wars fan she was not born when the first movie came out and growing up I bought her dolls and her older brothers, Donald and BJ, Star Wars toys but she turned into the biggest Star Wars fan ever.  While driving to the movie theater she gave me explicit instructions not to talk to her during the movie, not a word even though she had already seen the movie on opening day, having attended the midnight showing with her cousins Shamar, Tibletese and Amani so this was her second time seeing the movie.  

So after getting our large popcorn, soda, and red vines we made our way inside the theater and found seats dead center half way up.  We took off our coats made ourselves comfortable, sat through about 20 minutes of commercials and previews as the theater began to fill up.  I expected to be blown away by this billion dollar movie and I wasn't.  

I was happy to see that Finn, the black guy, did not die in the first minutes like a Star Trek television episode and to see him holding a light saber and fighting back against the evil Empire definitely for me was a highlight.  I sat quietly during the movie only breaking my promise twice once chuckling when Chewy and Han Solo appeared on screen, and once out of irritation with another scene I leaned over and whispered to my daughter that Spock would have just did a mind melt and been done with it.   She pulled away as if there had been a great disturbance in the Force. 

The movie ended and as we tried to remember where we had parked the car my daughter asked me the dreaded question "So how did you like the movie?"  I hesitated and replied "Do you want the truth"?  What followed was a lively discussion in the parking lot on my Star Trek versus her Star Wars until my daughter said "Mom lower your voice these people arriving have not seen the movie.”  Then we went shopping.

Don't forget your Everett and Jones Barbeque "Super Q" sauce for your 4th of July cookout. I recently stopped by my local supermarket and saw our barbeque sauce on display and of course I took some pictures. I still get goose bumps every time I see our Everett and Jones Barbeque sauce along side other major brands in my local supermarket.. It's awesome to see how far we have come since May 1973.   

Use the hashtag #Ilovegrilling and #everettandjonesbbq to tweet us your photos using our Everett and Jones Barbeque "Super Q" sauce.  We will re-tweet and post as many as we can on our Facebook page.  Have a safe 4th of July!
