Make-A-Wish Builds A Millennium Falcon Fort For Boy

Posted by samzenpus on from the it's-fast-enough-for-you-old-man dept.

Thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation and a production crew from Little Mountain Productions, a 9-year-old is getting the best fort ever. The crew is making him a Star Wars-themed fort with a gigantic Millennium Falcon with solar-powered LED interior and exterior lighting to sit on top. No word on how fast it can make the Kessel run, but lets hope the kid gets a long trip.

      hey, the Han Solo trilogy clearly explains why and how the Kessel run records are measured in parsecs.

    "For every problem, there is at least one solution that is simple, neat, and wrong."

    As amply demonstrated by the bonehead comment above that sig.
