Zandar's Thought Of The Day

The first thing that crossed my mind when I read this story...

The ex-fiance of the leader of the Hutaree Christian militia tells the AP that the group harbored delusions of grandeur to the point that they created "a big map on a room in their house of their own country and their own names of their countries and cities and stuff."

Andrea Harsh, who was engaged to alleged Hutaree leader David Stone, described the map as "very extensive."

...was this scene from Superman (the 1978 Chris Reeve/Gene Hackman classic.)

[Pointing to a map of California and the San Andreas fault.]
Lex Luthor: Everything west of this line is the richest, most expensive real estate in the world: San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco. Everything on THIS side of the line is just hundreds and hundreds of miles of worthless desert land, which just so happens to be owned by...
[whaps Otis with his pointer]

Otis: Uhhh... Lex Luthor Incorporated.

Lex Luthor: Now, call me foolish, call me irresponsible, but it occurs to me that a 500 megaton bomb planted at just the proper point would, uh...

Superman: Would destroy most of California. Millions of innocent people would be killed. And the west coast as we know it would---

Lex Luthor: Fall into the sea. [With a little wave] Bye bye California. Hello new west coast. My west coast. [overlays map with new map] Costa Del Lex. Luthorville. Marina del Lex. Otisburg-- "Otisburg"?

Otis: Miss Tessmacher said. She has her own little place.

Lex Luthor: "Otisburg"?

Otis: It's a little bitty place!

Lex Luthor: [angrily] "Otisburg"?!?!

Otis: Alright, I'll wipe it off, that's all.
[erases "Otisburg"]

Admit it.  You went there on this one, too.  Otisburg.  Bang.
