I have it on video. My brother'll probably upload it later tonight.
I'm going back there after my friend gets out of work :D

Sweet, I'll have to check it out later. I wish I had speakers with my computer grrr.

Speaking of which, are you going to the development camp? I heard it starts on Sunday...

Probably if I can get there ever. Summer school starts next week.

I don't have to. I am choosing to. I have no way to fit health in by the end of senior year.

Ah I see. That's a smart idea.
