And everyone deserves work holidays. I think it'd be weirder for him to not give you a bit of special treatment since you're only working for the summer rather than for 40 years kinda thing :pac:

I need to revise them one thing that really stuck with me was the one I did to remember Tara Mines info for environmental sustainability, it was shameful To remember that it was a big mine for lead and zinc I told myself "Tara was a huge whore" and it was polluting the environment (she was spreading STDs)...they planted trees, you can figure that euphemism out. People wanted the mine shut down (Tara had to close her legs) but workers needed employment (the men needed wimminz :pac:). Thats all I remember atm but yeah, if you're as immature and easily amused as me that might work Oh god I need to shower after this post. In before my infraction :L
