You never said anything to me about it

I'm broke anyway... the 9th is your birthday isnt it?

btw John doesnt have heat over there either. Ive got a few heaters so that is what i plan to use.

it wont be that bad with the heat and door closed.

I've seen worse. I saw a guy actually use old rims with no tires to roll a lifted SAS exploder out of a garage once.
