Absolutely hilarious, fortunately it is not a reality. It would be too expensive.

Odd morning. Only half awake, rushed out door after sleeping through alarm in a dream where a Mad Fr*nchman called Mr BonBon kidnapped me and took me to an undersea lair in the shape of a giant watch, fired me through a human pinball machine and then offered to replace the faulty bits of my brain in return for the ability to summon me at any time and forced loyalty to his unspecified political program.
