At this point why even have your own car? A pool of cars that can come and pick you up when you need it would be more efficient and allow the cost to be shared widely across a group
Find out if you’re going to be “raisin” some little’uns
Fake news. This is a fossil chip that these men dug up. Chips back in the Doracic era could grow much bigger due to the higher oxygen content of the air at the time.
A team of section 31 assassins armed with katanas are beamed aboard the enemy starship with orders to take out the top leadership?
