Fantastic. Nothing beats a little "za" with a dash of Peruvian marching powder. I would have drove from Austin to score some of that white diamond lust. Say, I've got a great idea for a restaurant, we'll make so much money. Anyone want to guess what it is?
I can't believe it took them ten months to figure it out. Why didn't they just order a pizza?
