This Saturday was a big day for me.

Location: Plano, Texas.
Building: Plano Centre, 2000 E. Spring Creek Pkwy.
Event: Sci-Fi Expo

For the first time, I met none other than Darth Vader Himself: David Prowse. To say I was star struck would be an understatement. It is hard to describe how it feels to meet one of the actors who brought to life the best characters the cinema has ever seen. He was awesome. I had my Star Wars Visual dictionary for him to sign and he knew exactly which page to turn to. Lord knows how many times he has signed one of those books. Definitely a Kodak moment!
