News Flash
The watch is about 45 miles away from my house.

I've dispatched a reporter to go out to the scene.


I hope to have more news later.


Stay tuned to this channel.

Don't worry Cru, my reporter say everythings fine and that wasn't my truck.

It's on the way.


I wonder what I should wear?



Should I wait till he knocks three times, I don't want to seem to anxious.

Apparently the Mods are working on a little TRF prank right now, they have the intention of banning Dan as soon as he's ready to post pictures of his new AP so we will never know what he bought!

All I know is, when she showed up, I didn't really care if she worked for fedex or not.

I forgot all about the watch.
