Another Kiwi said...: No one is addressing the super apes on the moon issue. Frankly I am locking the doors twice at night and getting extra adult diapers. 'Be peepared' is my motto.

Heamedi to you all; September 2, 2009 at 2:18 PM
mikey said...: I think I'll just avoid going to the moon at all until they deal with that pesky super ape infestation...

You should have been there 5 years ago before the mass-tourism influx. Spoiled completely now.; September 2, 2009 at 4:03 PM
Substance McGravitas said...: I walked half-an-hour down a fucking gravel road to the moon-rock stand and what did they have? FAKE MOON ROCKS.; September 2, 2009 at 4:06 PM
