Hello!
This does not explain why your Netra just ordered six feet and plenty
of things to work with, because it wants to leave... ..
Unfortunately not. ;)
It also does not explain why despotify is giving me a Bus error.
Dave stop staring at that car. The occupants want to finish their
business and leave the area......

Hello!
Oh that problem..... I arranged that too.
I didn't know you were over one hundred years old. ;)
Dave now you did it, you have a very tall individual who's over

Hello!
I see you've not been reading the witty notes that I've been including
regarding Dave's many problems. Or the reference to the Yetis.
Hey, they were aimed at Dave, not me. ;)

Hello!
Of course. But now you do have problems. There's a crowd of Cybermen
going through your garbage and the mail you did not bring in today.

Hello!
This does not explain why your Netra just ordered six feet and plenty
of things to work with, because it wants to leave... ..
Unfortunately not. ;)
It also does not explain why despotify is giving me a Bus error.
