Also, thanks go to rimwalker, who sent me the most awesomest text messages in response to my weird TextLJ post:

rimwalker 4:19pm: We need saved from our jobs this week I think.
rimwalker 4:19pm: a sudden and extended vacation to another planet sounds about right.
rimwalker 4:20pm: you kung-u the guards, i'll hotwire the spaceship
rimwalker 4:20pm: then we're free and away! *plots*


I think I should do something nice for him to thank him for entertaining me.  Except I don't have a sonic screwdriver to give him, and a universal remote does not, in fact, control the universe.  What to give the man who has nearly everything he needs to rule the world?
