I was going to, but then I spent the weekend writing novels and caulking windows. I'll go start one.

Also, I'd like to not that you were all fooled--I'm the dark wizard, and you're my unwilling (or willing) receptacles. Everyone who voted for that option is now in my thrall. Thanks for your support.

So I'm not the only one who is depressed in the mornings.

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

can't stands mornings. Ironically, however, I'm in a better mood than in the evening.

I'm disappointed that "A working lightsaber" isn't on the list. Although since that's what every geek wants, it isn't that creative, it is something we'd vote for and it's at least as original as "a million dollars." Though less than the related "A clone army"

4-5-6?

[Lieutenant Kije]

A working lightsaber would be far too dangerous for the layperson.  Just touching the nasty part gets you in trouble.

That's why you need self control first!

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

self control is highly over rated. I think I want a billion 99 cent burgers.

actually, "I want to be the fastest draw in the wild, wild West
In boot and spurs and a ten-gallon hat I'll be well dressed
I'll catch the bandits and throw them in jail
I'll win a shootout at the OK Corral
Oh bury me not on the lone prairie don't fence me in, Roy
I want to be a cowboy
And you can be Steer Man, my trusty sidekick."
"Hey Cowboy, my horse-sense is tingling."

What would you even do with a working lightsaber?  Trim the hedges?

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

reverse engineer the design, then mass produce them and distribute them to my ninja monkeys. Why? What else is there to do with them?

[Lieutenant Kije]

You'd wave it around, realize it's not quite as cool as you thought because light makes no sound when you wave it around in the air, and then resort to making the vorpal sounds yourself while waving it around.  Then feel stupid.

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

maybe that's what YOU'D do. But ninja rely on stealth. If the weapon doesn't make any noise as it decapitates you, so much the better.

[House of Mustard]

Yeah, but sneaking up on someone in the dark, carrying a massive flashlight isn't very stealthy either.

[Lieutenant Kije]

silent, yes.  But it's hard to be stealthy when you're waving around the equivalent of a neon light.
