Those were the movies.  This is for Real! Belief in a Universal Force, be it Energy, Chi, Ki, Prana, or the Force is more than just a fictional concept.

This group is designed to bring together people who follow and practice the principles of the Jedi path in real …

We like to read obviously. I started this group because there was a book club group that seems to have fizzled out a bit but there were people who were still interested. I've never been in a book club before but I figure a bunch of strangers could be in the same room and talk about a book without any problems, am I right? I like the idea of meeting in a public place so folks can get something to eat or have a few drinks. Anyone is welcome to join provided they like to read. If nothing else it's …
