Hell, I could probably program SAM to do that if that's what Theming Thursday was supposed to be. I've tried to post vague themes in the hopes that they would spurn the obvious and spawn creativity.

Well, this is kinda off topic for the thread, but I have to admit that a couple of times the theme has been a bit obscure for me. I usually try to make of it what I can. Some themes are a lot more fun than others. I've occasionally just sat out a whole thursday because I couldn't think of anything that really fit the theme (or was too lazy to figure out how to bend something to fit).
I usually pick something pretty obvious for my first pick and then wander as far from that as I can work out for the rest. In general, I think we get more obscure stuff on thursday than on any other request day.
imho,
