But THEY got phat and more than once it happened that when the time came for unzipping it, it was unzip it tee do dad a dad dum de dum dum. When replacing it, or trying to, it so happened that no one on board this fabulous orgy could remember which end of the drive it belonged to. So, everything you post here could end up in a book authored by a guy who shared his weed and his old lady with the author under discussion when they were in an Irish bar in Mexico City. Also, it is never of the slightest use to appeal to the THEM about anything—for THEY only refer to the Keep it cool code, and read out in pathetic tones, Stencilized Instructions which THEY have never themselves been able to understand.
