She was going in reverse. It was always facing east.

I ask not what you can do for me, but what you can do for me right now.

Connor says: She was going in reverse. It was always facing east.

And so it was - well done.

Well, that’s the last roll of Lifesavers - peppermint - to Connor. Nice work!

And I’m afraid I must draw the curtain on the Three Minute Mystery Drill for the day…

Good gaming, guys!

I like the driving in reverse answer with a footnote indicating that Julia was shit-faced.

But failing that, was she on a ferry boat?

Okay, I’m here. Sorry. Are we losing Bricker, now that I’ve actually shown up?

Coldfire, if she drove over a pole, she’d switch between pointing south and pointing north. Unless she found the East Pole, I guess. 🙂

Awwright, this just pisses me off to no end. I check this place first thing everyday, and then scuttle off to other sites. The _one day_ the other site actually has somethings I want to look at…

Okay, I’m done pissing and moaning. Can we do this tomorrow? I promise to stay glued to the site.
