I'm sure all those $300 payments I've made help you out quite a bit with that.

Hey, the Orion Complex didn't pay their bill, so I had the Montsnmags Collections Agency put a horsehead in their nebula. They'll learn, or find out the hard way that as pretty as they are, it's only the dark that matters.

If that gets you going, you'll probably love this! Icehotel

We stayed there a couple of nights like 3 years ago I think it was, a truly awesome experience.

Didn't know about that... I hope they have A/C on, otherwise the things will have melted by tomorrow morning.

What's wrong with a 100 year old house? Do I need to sell it right now or can I wait a bit?

Other alternatives:

Hôtel de Glace, January 4 to April 4, 2010.
Carnaval de Québec, January 29 to February 14, 2010.

Although these aren't technically available *right now*.

You need to either make friends with the IT department (or bribe them), or find a large axe...

oh I had the same curse!!! my son was very much like me, raising him was a true struggle (and joy), there were many many times one or the other of us damn near didn't make it. I guess that is what happens when you are raising a Warrior! my daughter on the other hand was practically perfect in every way until she was 20. then all of the demonic and dark entities crawled in and stole her sould and humanity away . still haven't figured it out
