(Interestingly, it's available through Wal-Mart online, but that seems to be another story.)
Which sort of implies that it's Anderson and not Wal-Mart that's the problem.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

If I only had a brain...
See above. Anderson's sole client is Wal-Mart. We can safely assume that their decisions are not unpalatable to Wal-Mart.

Sorry, the html is a bit funky, but I think it can mostly be understood.

Trying to read it, Ali, but I keep getting interrupted. I'll get to it tonight if nothing else.

In the it's all about me news:
Ok, I'd really appreciate it if anyone who was planning on reading my story did not critique anything, since I've just spent about $20 making 23 copies of it, and I'm not going to change it and print new versions, so if someone makes a brilliant critique, it is only likely to make me upset because I can't implement any changes. So, um, yeah. Feel free to read it, or not, whatever you want, but the critiquing window has closed. If that means I should take down the link, I can do that too. Thanks!

I read the story and enjoyed it, Alibelle.

Thanks, guys.
Edit: My post really wasn't meant to be a chastisement, I just didn't want to get critiques after I spent money. Also, I wasn't sure if I should leave the link up, if I did not want critiques. And to say thanks again, for all the support.
