POPS'Family Guy' to parody 'Return of the Jedi' The show's previously announced parody of "The Empire Strikes Back" is titled "Something-Something-Something Dark Side." Unfortunately, Fox won't air "Dark Side" until the fall. But with Carrie Fisher playing a recurring role on "Family Guy" as Peter Griffin's boss, there's some hope around the show's campfire that she'll do a voiceover in the "Empire" spoof (not as Princess Leia, since Lois plays Leia, but as another character...)

POPSbuddha baby flicks "much of Buddhist practice is about the refrain from excess - it is, after all, called "the Middle Path" - that is, it consists of stepping back from the entanglements of emotional attachment and aggressive desire, and understanding how to free oneself from these things by being more mindful and aware of them. Its teachings attempt to make us more human by questioning our usual human reactions."

POPSJoe the Plumber: Lien on Home and Medical Bills Owed Why oh why do people run away from their best interests? Warren Buffet, who has more money than Joe might ever have said that our current tax system is unfair. But oh no Joe, you side with those who really don't give a damn about your aspirations.

POPSD&D master Gary Gygax was a nerd's nerd Gygax was 69 when he died - a pretty good roll when you're trying to hit a troll with a two-handed sword, but much too young to leave the real world behind. As for the fantasy worlds he created, they have expanded, flourished and become a part of everyday life. And they're all a tribute to the original dungeon master.
