Not much of note & light sabers

There's not much of note going on since my last post. Spent the weekend with family. The only item of interest might be that one of our cars is currently sitting in my parent's garage because two parts of the cover of the timing belt were busted when being removed. Of course, now the logistics of getting over there to finish the job are getting a little complex.

From the not-so-bright-jedi department, comes a story from the UK. Apparently, they decided that instead of using the old boring carboard tubes or even aluminum rods to film a light saber duel, they would use "fluorescent light tubes with petrol." You have to wonder what category of stupid this falls into:

1. It sounded like a good idea at the time.
2. Well, you see, we were out drinking...
3. Gasoline explodes?

I'm guessing that these two will not be chosen to be part of the Order of the Jedi any time soon.
