RPG geekness

weaktwosA friend and I met up at Great Escape games yesterday to go shopping and then see a movie.
Incidentally, we saw "Big Fish". I enjoyed it. Burton's sick and twisted side is subdued, but there is some whimsical creativity at play here which makes the film a tender story between father and son, and an enjoyable theatrical ride, in my opinion.
Oh, I said this post was about RPG geekiness, didn't I?
So, I acquired a few sourcebooks for d20 Modern, as well as a sourcebook for a 13th Century Monastery. This is my horde of sourcebooks for a campaign notion I have, which is to subject a gaming party to multiple genres over the course of the campaign. This would be accomplished by entering various portals that transcend space and time and technology. The itch is resurfacing to start developing a shell for this concept, so I shall begin reading up on this and developing my plan for how this would work. I can put my characters through Dragonlance, Forgotten Realms, Star Wars, Call of Cthulu, and d20 Modern.
Of course, I'd have to find some foo--er friends to play this game with me, too.
What I did not buy at the store was a copy of Testament by Green Ronin. This would allow you to roleplay the Bible! Hah! What would Jesus do, indeed.
