I know I was, when I removed Widgets. :cool:


Here's ten points just for filling out your computer specs. :-)

I hung garlic around their necks, staked their hearts, left them out in the sunshine, shot them with silver bullets,
beat them with an ugly stick and took their lunch money. :D

I kilt the Widget Man. o_O
