ETA: directed at Gail before all you interlopers got in my way. Stand back. I'm armed, drinking and annoyed.
Hey lady, herding kittens is an admirable and underappreciated job. Why do you think I had to enlist Transformers to help? And now that I think of it, you look sort of familiar. Are you currently sitting in a very large truck in Nevada and pretending your cell phone doesn't work? ETA:AGAIN: I just noticed that all you interlopers are really just Del. Stop appearing in double, Del. This is not a warning. Step away from the keyboard.
