"Between rocket pods, missiles, bombs, and cuteness, I just can't decide..."
Nice pic, man, very cute. Nothing says awesome like fighter jets and fox plushies. Reminds me of my own puppet fox I had when I was a tyke (whom I has oh-so-creatively named "Foxy"). Just a great combination: bad-ass firepower and cuteness!! And I love the notes you put, just great stuff.
