What to do with rope lights?

ChadTower:

Somehow I ended up with 9 18' indoor/outdoor rope lights.  Some all red, blue, or green, some clear hose with varying colors inside.  I'm sure there is something amusing I can do with these.  Ideas?

Put them on a sequencer and make a nice Christmas display.

It's an interesting question.  On the one hand rope lights cover a lot of yardage and they are really good for making "forms" for the holidays  (in other words a wire sculpture lined with lights).  On the other hand they get really hot, typically look a lot uglier than their mini light counterpart and generally eat up the power. 

I think the guys are right on the gigantic sign.... that's about all they are good for. 

People also use them to line their boats or decks, but I don't reccomend that as you'll have to run a drop cord to plug them in and they eat a lot of power for such a use.
