Maybe that's why you're not in marketing!

Dammit, I was saving this thread title for when the Canadians turn us away.

yes... if those dolls were to fall into a child's hand, they would turn into a TERRORIST.

Yeah, but they PLAY MUSIC and THEY DANCE which means they would also have been banned in Afghanistan under the Taliban.

Not all TERRORISTS are the same, Kate! after all, Hitler was quite a groover.

Citizen Kate (kate), Thursday, 27 November 2003 10:52 (twenty-one years ago)

It is urgent and key we know what music they play. I want Boom Shack A Lack by Apache Indian. Or at least Mr Boombastic.

I was worried this was going be a Casuistry thread announcing the end of the Minor Thirds Canadian Tour.
