I'm an ADDICT!!!

Yes, believe it or not, I am quite subject to the ills of addict behaviors. No, I am not out on the streets sucking dick for coke (no brokeback), no I am not skipping work to stay home and drink cognac with my breakfast. No, I am not neglecting my girlfriend to pop in a DVD and bang out some knuckle children to the sounds of Kitten's moaning, or doing the same to any of the thousands of women on internets... Well, not anymore, but my life behind closed doors is no more of your business than I fucking give you, stop judging me! Anyway, what is this all about?

But wait, I ain't done! (hey, the Hobby Lobby nearest my job opened last week and has a Grand Opening sale going) 2006 Chevy Corvette Z06: Assess box contents: Wheels on (yes, I chose black): Really simple, interior sits in body, body on frame and 7 screws, game over: And back in the box: I will need to grab a display case for this one soon, as this box does not house it securely, but I like it.
