Answer: Yaaargh!? Just play slayer on the stereo

I represent the Cuban Tourist Comission (CTC). We organise boat trips to the USA-mostly one way, and wonder if you could supply about 300 of these for our clients. Also could you convert buses to do the same job but carry more people. We can arrange payment by supplying your noble country with stress relieving medication and cigars.

Answer: I'm writing out a quote already. The longer waterline length of the bus will stand it in good stead for speed. We'll take your payment with open arms!

Gold!

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!

Tis so awesome, Daniel Melling was a good friend at school (mahurangi college). Always into inventing stuff. From compresser powered spud guns to an amphibious townace. Brilliant!
