1. Because I don't live my life by some invisible "book of rules."
If I wanted to do that, I'd be a right-wing fundy.

And Lucy does have some explaining to do - about why she married such an asshole. :P

8. I'll serve that sentence with a big fat smile on my face...
Drive the Ultimate Miniature Funkmobile for a week? No problem at all.

Slow can be fun, too.

6. I think that
