What a bunch of crap - however if I saw someone coming at me with a cane topped with a chrome skull the word "risky" might pop into my head.

When I saw "New York Times" and this:

"A 2002 study of how customers of Canadian Tire were using the company's credit cards..."

I felt I'd read enough, but I still read on. Where are they hiring these so-called "writers" from? Sheesh.

They could at least say where we can get one of these if they are to insult skull-loving people !

I think that's a mighty nice skull and that I want it.

They must have a HUGE collection of chrome skulls at the Times

What if I bought both a chrome plated skull, and a birdhouse? Or better yet, a birdhouse made to look like a chrome plated skull? Would the two negate each other and create a tear in the fabric of space/time?

I officially need to make a skull birdfeeder. Too bad I don't have that kind of skill.

I own seven chrome skulls and have never missed a payment of any sort in my life. But my dreams are really messed up... what does that say?

The only thing I buy with my credit card is booze. What do they say about that?
