The rumor is, the computers were so slow at the AD building today due to the large number of administrators trying to dump all of their illegal activity off their computers. Paper shredding is too 20th Century for R8.

The biggest advantage Mr. Turner has over CJ Huff, Carol Stark, and the rest of them is that despite what those people have done to him, he has a sense of humor and they have absolutely none. Go get them, Mr. Turner. Keep us informed and keep us laughing.
