#5 I' sure (unfortunately) the ACLU is most likely oiling up its lawyers even as we speak :((

I mean we simply can't allow accountability to be taught!

Good job Dad! I hope the brats get the message....

#6 The winnning bidder "golden_palace_casino" has a relatively low feedback rating of 69 and seems to buy and sell "Warhammer" and other RPG stuff. I wouldn't expect this deal to go through.

#7 Golden Palace Casino is the one all the boxers ink on their backs for TV prizefights - cheap publicity...

#8 However much the parents recoup from selling their brats' Christmas presents, I can only hope they have the good sense to spend it entirely upon themselves. Preferrably in some sort of way where they can gurgle with pleasure while the children are forced to watch.

I'm thinking of an in-home catered candlelight steak and lobster dinner with Champagne for mom and dad while the kids are fed unsalted clamshell mush.
