At the time, I took the contradictory positions that Yoda was a very, very old man with no legs. How my seven-year-old brain reconciled these two opinions, how I thought Yoda walked around, I don't know. Of course, in many ways, I was a rather dim child.

And of course, although I was supposed to be the older and wise one, my brother was right, and he has never let me forget it.
