Using my MBP as a Monitor

Believe it or not I'm the biggest geek I know and for some reason, I don't even have a monitor at home. The problem is that my fileserver (Mac Mini) can be contacted using VNC which works great as long as the computer doesn't screw up on me (which it has). otherwise in my house, we have 2 Dell notebooks, 1 macbook pro and a imac.

Is it possible to use my macbook pro as a monitor for my mac mini just temporarily?
 
Why not simply use the Mac Mini with VNC? That way you could use it from the Dells or the MBP.
Tight VNC viewer seems to suck less than the other VNC clients on PC.
 
That's what he does as far as I understand it. Until the Mac crashes or VNC goes down. No, you can't use a notebook's or iMac's screen as a monitor.
