Awww. I want my money back.

[ Snort. ]

That stuff is great for cleaning toilets, too.

[gumshoewizard]

I'll dream you up a golden doubloon.

And its good for cleaning rust off car batteries, too.

Now that was an interesting exercise. What was your intended goal?

[gumshoewizard]

Practice. Never hurts to keep skills sharp, right?

[choirboy_clerk]
