With Joe? Apparently muttering ‘Hubba-hubba’ whilst drooling at the prettier female agents.
It goes: “Interesting, do it again.”
But what does the fox say?
LANDMASTER!

Lately I’ve been thinking intermittently about how there’s a conceivable universe where I did scientific research.
I don’t want to do the work, but I would be interested to see my notes from that alternate universe.
