Life is cruel and I need to vent, so bare with me.
I subscribe to several magazines about 3D art and CGI type stuff. Saddly, most of the good ones are not from USA, but other countries like the UK. One of my magazines, ImagineFX, has a scratch card promotion insert in its latest issue. I like scratchers, so I give it a scratch. I won an Iphone 4 and a cash prize... but not really. It is a UK based magazine, so only UK residents can win, and Iowa is nowhere near the UK.
Life is cruel, don't you think?

You do not need to change the world, merely leave it a little better than how you found it.

Aw, I'm sorry to hear it. *hugs*
Your punch viciously hammers a shark's abdomen.
A shark is stunned, but will probably recover.

Send it to an FK player from the UK to collect and mail to you?

I vote me!
Sadly, a lot of those scratch cards in the UK are just cons. You think you've won something amazing, then you realise that in order to "claim" your prize, you have to call some ridiculously expensive number which will keep you hanging on for so long that you'll end up spending more on the phone call than the prize is worth. Meanies.

Most likely true. Still, I could have used an iPhone 4!

Coventry! You lucky lucky thing. I lived there for a couple of years, it's ugly but I have a soft spot for the place.
