Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I just realized I have a $50 credit at Amazon.

That means I should buy Wii Mario Kart, right?

Nope, you should buy several copies of Gothic Charm School to spread throughout your family like some strange gothic virus.

You know there are no Sanity Checks in BSG, right Random?

!DUDE! That is impressive! What, like 100 HP for them furry beasts?

If only *my* skills as a sound guy could wander into Boomer to DISABLE that frakin' karaoke intercom. Is he punch drunk with authority?

I believe the problem is that he's developed a programming fault in his little toaster brain. Maybe we're passing through an ion storm?

Oh, right. Everyone's a critic now that you're all in the brig and have nothing to do but be negative. Like you wouldn't be doing the same with the PA system on a nearly empty Battlestar if YOU were suddenly promoted to Admiral.

Anyway, two of you brigged personnel are toasters and need a little edjumication in the awesome power of the human artistic impulse. Love Boat and Manilow are just the beginning. Tomorrow, as a further boost to morale, we're going to start Macarena lessons.

Oh, that's right, he's Admiral now. Shouldn't one of us be shooting him around now? Or is that next season?

t /not really the game, but close enough

Um, I think it's *Two players are toasters*! YOU could be one of those two as well. IJS.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

That means I should buy Wii Mario Kart, right?

Yes. Yes, you should. When you put the disc in Mario's voice says, "Mario Kart, wii!" to which I am compelled to reply, "Wheeeeeee!" ijs.

I can do that through a local bookstore. Mario Kart is pretty much limited to Amazon, Game Stop, or Target, and I care not which giant chain/big box I support.
