      I've just realised, we need a lit-match emoticicon ( :flame: ?), for when someone lights the blue touch-paper!

        I was thinking a bat to a beehive myself. But that'd work too.

              I've said on many occasions that if my novels become popular and someone actually tries to make a religion out of them, I will verbally thrash them to no end. But I would enjoy it. Come to think of it, I hope someone does, because that would be very entertaining.

                          Being Nordic I have a good response to that one (assuming by "my religion" you were implying christianity): Your religious leader got nailed to a cross. My religious leader wields a hammer. Any questions? ;P //L

                            Well, my books aren't actually ABOUT religion, and the one religion described is actually a cult, but it has its own myths about how the universes were created and such. I mean if the scientologists can make a religion out of intergalactic overlords, aliens being dropped into volcanoes, and brainwashed souls in neanderthal bodies (Just google "OT3"), then I'm sure some idiot could turn my story into a religion.

                                      BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I figure I can be the guy in charge of CSS's conspiracy inside of 10 years. I'm already watching all the Bond movies to figure out what NOT to do. It appears using cell phones to communicate with minions who have explosives is a bad idea... I'll have to move to occular inplants.

                                        And remember that if you have a sexy female underling, she has to be devious and evil enough to kill the enemy spy after letting him seduce her. Oh, and don't explain your plan to the enemy, no matter how likely you think he's going to die. Don't even tell your own men any more than they need to know. And no elaborate deaths. Don't take prisoners. If you capture an enemy agent, shoot him in the head, then check his pockets for loose change. Sure, torture is fun, but so is dominating the world.

                                          And remember that if you have a sexy female underling, she has to be devious and evil enough to kill the enemy spy after letting him seduce her.

                                          No she has to kill him while seducing him. Preferably on tape so I can watch. Though the wife might get mad about that...

                                          Minions are to be kept as well informed as CSS, got it. Alternately I was thinking of telling him how I plan to crash the stock exchange with some elaborate plan and then go rob a bank while he tries to thwart said plan.

                                          And no elaborate deaths. Don't take prisoners. If you capture an enemy agent, shoot him in the head, then check his pockets for loose change. Sure, torture is fun, but so is dominating the world.

                                          Got a .38 special and a dumpster ready for them. Though I did see one guy screw it up, 2 guys, machine guns, in a room, and they screwed it up. I am starting to think of having him go to meet the underling at her place and using a sniper rifle. Just in case she doesn't finish him first. This has the added benefit of having a sniper scope pointing into the bedroom... Any advice on the secret lair? I was thinking inactive volcano but I don't know... too cliche?
