Stepping on WANK just as he was set to beat the two hour "Grandma Got Ran Over By A Reindeer." Challenge. You should be ashamed. Christmas comes but once a year and you ruined it for pirate listeners
everywhere. You could have taken up the dare, but you were too lily-livered to give it a try.

The Smacker stepping on the other stations again. I guess he owns 4030 also.
