That’s right Josh: You can have your own flux capacitor, but you’d better hurry. They only made 1000 of them. I hope you’ve been saving your money too… they are about $250. Take a little gander over at Think Geek!

Thanks to Grant for pointing this blog. I can tell there will be hours of entertainment from this little jewel.
I have played in a number of worship band over the years, and the upward progression of Metro has been constant. I am realistic enough to know that the odds of Matt being the last worship pastor I play with are slim, so I can only imagine how metro the next guy will be.
