I'd have it on top of my desk, placed at an angle where I could see my reflection.

ETA: I've told the story about almost getting a Paramount tour guide fired, but the board may have people that haven't heard the story. My buddy and I wrote a letter, explaining how we took advantage of his kindness, and left if for his supervisor. Still don't know how that worked out for him.

When I took a Paramount tour, I was lucky enough to get a guide who was brand new. He didn't stick to the areas the tour was supposed to follow. We watched a drummer audition for The Arsenio Hall show. He took us inside some prop rooms and walked up and down some aisles. These were big, warehouse sized buildings. He let us touch the rabbit from Fatal Attraction, ice cubes from Cheers, and the knife from The Golden Child.



As he was walking us from one building to another, he was telling us about how the Cheers crew used to shoot hoops on a basketball goal in a parking lot. Then he mentioned that building over there is where they shot the Star Trek movies. The bridge from the ship is in there. Do you guys want to see that?

Of course, we all said yes, so he started trying to find a door that wasn't locked. When a door opened, our little group of 10, maybe 12, all kind of stumbled in the door behind him. There we were. Inside the Enterprise!



It had rails around it, just like in the movies. It had the control panel, with two pedestal chairs, and behind them was the Captain’s Chair.

A couple of people sat in the two smaller chairs, so some of us took turns trying out the Captain’s Chair! As someone sitting in that chair was saying he needed “Full power now”, and another guy was answering with something like “I've giv'n her all she's got captain”, and the rest of us laughed, a man walked in and asked “What are you people doing in here?” That was the end of our fantasy. This was apparently someone important, that scared us all, especially the guide. He chewed the guy out all the way out the door. Our voyage, and our tour, was over. We walked straight to the building we'd started from, and parted ways. Never to be together as a crew again.

I'm shocked this one took so long to make the list.

I enjoy going to the range (not as often now, with the prices). I've always wanted to come across a deal on an old Mauser, one just in shooter condition so it wouldn't ruin the value... I'd find a flash-hider and old scope, and make up a proper replica. And I'd want to find some tracers to shoot!
