If at first you dont succeed, skydiving’s not for you. There are few problems in life that cannot be solved by the suitable application of high explosives. Landmines are equal oppourtunity weapons! My cat’s breath smells like cat food. More to come… 😃 ---

Drive defensively: buy a tank. You can lead a horse to water, but if you can get him to float on his back you’ve really got something. Always remember to pilliage _before_ you burn! There’ll be more… oh - by the way: love the explosives one, Mnem. 😃 ---
