Ron Gilbert got his biggest wish come true



Excerpt freely done by me from this source

"...Saturday morning I'm flying along at 37,000 feet on my way home ...and I'm sitting in my seat mumbling to myself like I usually do, and I must have been mumbling louder than normal because the guy next to me says "What did you say?"

-"Oh nothing really," I reply, "I was just thinking about the one thing I wish for, above all others."

-"Ah, let me guess...peace and tranquility in the Middle East?" he says.

-"No, not that, something bigger," I say.

-"I bet you're wishing that all the starving children in Dufar could be fed" The flight attendant shouts from the forward galley.

-"No. Look, these are all good wishes," I say, "But you need to be thinking bigger, bigger and more important."

At this point I'm standing in the middle of the plane so everyone can hear me.

I hold up my hands and the plane becomes silent.
-"You know what I wish for above all else?" ... "I wish I could play Monkey Island on the iPhone!"

Now, you had to be there, but the whole plane erupts in applause..The pilot gently rocks the wings back and forth to show his approval. With no prompting from me, the entire cabin starts humming the theme song to Monkey Island and people are making up words to the song and everyone is dancing and hugging.

Do I need to say more? This rules!

"I'm Guybrush Threepwood, the only non-undead pirate to know the secret of Monkey Island, I've destroyed the only australian land developer in his ultimate insult, discovered the world's only talking monkey, and married the most beautiful governor in the world. - and all before the age of 22!"





Oh, and check the updates.
