While I struggle to finish my Corey Hart article (if only because I have not been at work in a while, and it is the only time I write) I figured I would post this video to hold people over. I have mentioned in the past on this website that I love Star Wars almost as much as I love gambling, sports and the female figure. If I could somehow bet on lingerie football I think my head would explode. Anywho, I am not really telling any tales out of school here when I make the claim that R2-D2 is one of the funniest mother fuckers in the galaxy (try watching A New Hope high and not laugh at anything he beeps, it is impossible) which is why this video saddens me so. It begins pleasantly enough with R2 hanging out in a peaceful forest (Endor, one could assume) until his party is rudely interrupted by a Grizzly Bear, widely considered the ‘Biff Tannen’s of the animal kingdom. I watched this video with shock and disgust as the Grizzly mercilessly tears into everyone’s favorite droid yelling at my computer like Nancy Kerrigan, ‘Why? Why?’ I found myself sobbing into my coffee cursing at the heavens, ‘leave him alone you carnivorous son of a bitch!’ I mean, R2-D2 never stood a chance - where he is one of the most beloved characters in Star Wars lore a bear is nothing more than a godless killing machine. Unless that Bear is Jay Cutler, then R2 could have tapped him lightly on the knee and scooted away to safety while Cutler pouted on the sideline. Hah-cha-cha-cha, play me off Johnny!
