Bea Arthur's cantina song was the only part of the Star Wars Holiday Special that wasn't a pile of suck. In fact, I quite like it.
Good night, Bea... but not goodbye.
Ah, those bygone days when Star Wars was "just" a really entertaining movie and not a massively intricate quasi-religion for tha half-witted (I do not disinclude myself)
It seems that everyone overlooks a very important aspect of her life: She was a Marine. May not mean a lot to some but I guarantee you two things:
1. If you were to ask her what her greatest title was in her life, she would have said "Marine" and...
2. There will be Marines in full Dress Blues saluting her casket.
Semper Fi, Bea.
