Our wings are not tired

I am in Costco and they have a handful of Wiis here. Call me and I can try to snag one. My phone number is in my profile.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

ND, I won't have the money to buy one for another couple of months (stoopid last-in-line-for-stimulus-check SSN), but thanks for the tip! We have a Costco here that I've been meaning to join for other reasons.

Really? The cops don't seem to care about ped injuries as far as I've noticed? I will have to investigate... heh heh heh.

Can you jack a city bus? That might be fun for ped clearance.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Can you jack a city bus?

Yep. Also, a garbage truck.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

I was making considerable progress on GTA3, and then decided it was time to save the game and go on a massive killing spree.

Actually, I went on several, each ending with my death.

Very cathartic.
