9. Do you remember the graphic on the APD cars?
I swear it looked like a blue sperm farting stars and that is how I've always referred to Izzy. But hey...at least our Olympics were paid for before they were over. Suck it IOC! :hi:

11. Kang and Kodos . . .


"We must move forward... not backwards, not to the side, not forwards, but always whirling, whirling, whirling towards freedom."

Kang: Hmm... Abortions for some, miniature American flags for others.
