Lose the "Theban runes"; it's not a good alphabet anyway. It's just a way to write a bunch of scribbles and look mysterious. It's not even an efficient alphabet: it's a bunch of ornate squiggly lines that supposedly look esoteric. It may actually be based upon glyphs used in Thebes, I don't know, but with my experience as a guide here (I invent languages, remember?), I feel that as an alphabet, the "Theban runes" are cumbersome to write hastily, are difficult to differentiate from one another (especially if the writer scratched them down in haste!), and when you consider that U, V, and W are supposedly the same letter, it makes phrases like "Wu Tang Clan ain't nuthin' to fuck wit" really ridiculous looking. Then again, if you're givin' props to rappers from da hoodz in THEBAN, you have another thing coming.

PS- my money cleared, so no bank teller blood is on my hands. Yet.
