Don't worry about it. I'll just break your psyche and rebuild you as my personal plaything. Everything will work out just fine. *smile*

Cryo? I just went in some port-a-potty with my secretary, and when we came out she was holding some weird box thing with letters on it. I told her to use it to call for help. I am forced to assume the people she is communicating with are the time machine repair company or something, and you can help me. How do I go back to my time?
