Or that time my radiator exploded...
Sounds like you've got quite a few 'Saab' stories...

You forget... I'm Muslim, not Mormon! Mormons get to have DOZENS of wives. Muslims ONLY get 4. As each of my e-wives disappears from AF I get to have a replacement added... Since ALL of my previous ones have stopped visiting AF, Brie gets to be #1, numero uno! *SPECIAL*

Nyaaaah-nyaah!

Don't mind the e-HateR, I'll e-see you on e-Friday night, sugah...
