What? Don't buy Chinese made crap? How the hell is Hillary going to fund her campaign...err... I mean coronation.
Good point Molson. Maybe her funny Chicom money will be tainted with GHB and she'll flashback to the 60s?!??
I agree Rev. Now go play with your Aqua Dots For Post-Teens toys. See that glowing Moses, talk to him, he'll listen. Take notes, too. Let me know hot it goes.
-- uh, that's let me know "how" it goes, not hot...well, maybe it could be. I don't know. I'm going on an almost complete lack of sleep today.
