You've got Michael J Fox's Delorean. Where in time do you travel? I'm off to this back road toward Emmaus in Luke 24:13-32, where the resurrected messiah is pulling a practical joke - for a great reason - on a sad couple.
After you watch the video, come back for the next comment I forgot to mention: there are a couple of reasons I suspect Luke leaves the identity of Cleopas' companion a secret, but one of them is this. He want us, as readers, to put OURSELVES on the road listening to Jesus open up the Bible to us about his identity and work.
Music today: George Frederick Handel, 'Hallelujah Chorus'. Handel was almost bankrupt when he received the commission to write this piece as a fundraiser for a debtor's prison in Dublin. The music poured out of him for Messiah; he wrote the whole thing in only a little over 3 weeks, And yes, he says he had a powerful encounter with God in writing the 'Hallelujah Chorus.'

Page France, 'Jesus.' This uses some slightly shocking imagery, but there's a sense of joy, amazement and yes, humor that I think is appropriate, and I think Christ himself would welcome over the delight that death itself has been conquered. Glory!
