That'd be pretty epic. Or someone who finds their way around by just listening, kinda like Dare Devil  8)

I bet you can't work a Glee-like musical number into the plot using the main charaters as the performers.  So no shunting it off on Toot and crew and letting Harry just watch.  No Carpenter kid or Maggir Jr. school musicals either. I want Harry, Murphy, Thomas, Molly, Sanya, Carlos and then any other main character necessary, rehearsing, dancing and singing!  And the book must end with the final performance.

HA!  The gauntlet has been thrown! ;D

Impressive sir
But he Could just put Harry into a coma and have that going on in his head while switching every chapter or so to a different character's POV to get a good Dresden action adventure story that would be happening in the real world XD

Nah, Jim's too good a writer to pull something like that.  Obviously he's not going to actually take these bets, or even read them most likely.  But if he were to take a bet, he wouldn't worm out of it by putting Harry in a coma and using the Dallas-esque "It was all a dream" crap.  He'd do it right.

I can see him doing some really bad stand-up comedy in a blue tuxedo with vamp make-up on, or dressed normally with the addition of fairy wings XD

I'm going to throw in a few combinations I think would be awesome but I don't know anyone (else) that could do them:

The suits/houses of cards (or possibly tarot?) as characters, macaroni cheese as a plot point, dark brooding technology, and a heist.

Midsummer Night's Dream from Puck's PoV

Kilts, corsets and quantum physics.
Great things are done when men and mountains meet, these are not done on the jostling street - Blake.

I bet Jim can't write a book that combines .....
Wow. Um it's hard to think of something.
Got ideas just thinking about:

Atlantas and Phineas & Ferb or My Little Ponies
Grecian Gods and Ballet
Wine making and mermaids
Tinker Bell and The founding of America
