It is pouring down rain in the land of the Sci-Guys.  It is also time for a new umbrella.  The great guys over at ThinkGeek are offering this amazing umbrella for sale, described as a “Blade Runner” umbrella.

Hold on… I agree that there are some umbrellas in the movie Blade Runner that have flourescent tubes for handles, but this umbrella looks like a LIGHTSABER running through an umbrella.  I may end up buying this product ($24.99 plus S/H) to keep my balding head dry, but I think that I will tell all my friends and co-workers that it is a lightsaber umbrella.

Most already know I am a geek, and most know what Star Wars is.  I’m nervous that a Blade Runner reference is too sophisticated for the non-Sci-Guy crowd!  What do you think?  “Blade Runner” prop?  Or “Star Wars?”
