Order of the Stick 2: Sticking together

Or, for a real world example:
Order of the Stick 2: Minecraft
He has issues with his dad trying to control his life, right?
"Order of the Stick 2: Stick Up for Yourself!"
And that other sequel we all love:
"Order of the Stick II: Histories of Linearism and Adventuring"
Some of the others I thought of while on the pot:
"Order of the Stick 2: Speak softly and carry a big Stick"
"Order of the Stick 2: First The Carrot"
"Order of the Stick 2: Stick with it"
"Order of the Stick 2: The Short End of the Stick" (This should be the title of Belkar's backstory)
"Order of the Stick 2: Sticks and Stones"
"Order of the Stick 2: A Sticky Wicket"
"Order of the Stick 2: Stick To Your, Um, Bows"
EDIT: Ninja'd, but I thought of it first, so there. Nyah.

All this speculation is pointless. According to the Rules of Sequels, the name must be Order of the Stick 2: Restickations.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

By the way, is it normal for wands to use divine spells? Because Sending is a 5th-level Sor/Wiz spell, but a 4th-level Cleric spell, and wands are limited to 4th-level spells.

EDIT: I just noticed a post on the GitP forum about how Julio's endorsement for a brand of healing potions was essentially saying "Screw clerics, drink a potion!". If that's the case, how'd Julio get a cleric to make a Sending wand?

The eighth level class feature of the Dashing Swordsman is called Craft Plot Device.

You can use any version of a spell to create a wand. IIRC, you can even create wands from odd lists such as Bard or Paladin.

Correct. Anything but Wizard or Cleric is relatively rare because they tend to get the best spells earliest for it (and because they're more likely to have item creation feats), but it uses the exact same mechanics.

In fact, Wands of Cure Light Wounds are actually kind of a staple item for a lot of parties, unless they're using that heal-over-time spell from some source or another (it's in Spell Compendium, but I don't know if that's where it originated or not) that's a little more efficient. Using potions for out of combat healing is actually pretty strange if you've got a cleric or anyone with Use Magic Device.

As for wand sources, you don't need to be BFFs with a cleric to buy a wand made by one. I haven't heard all the juicy details, but you probably also have to do more to enrage all clerics everywhere than advertise something that does something they can do.
