Oh how cute, Dizzy is playing scrabble, and on the beach and HAS A MOAT AND A CASTLE!

That's FINE. You sit there all smug within your sandy fortress of sand, atop your throne of seashells, mocking me with scrabble boards.

I hope you built it high enough above sea level so you don't get washed away!

I also hope you built it to withstand the army of crabs I am going to unleash against you! Crabs... with frikkin' lasers mounted on them!

Ha! What are you going to do against an army of laser wielding crabs, huh?? Throw seashells at them? That will just make them crabby, and no one wants to face the wrath of a crabby crab!

I just need... to find an aquarium, order some high powered lasers, overnight them all to Tybee Island and...

Alpaca!

Where is Alpac - Alpaca!! Get the shovels back out, I don't care if we finished the trench - we're making it bigger and filling it with water! And get me my Doom Weapons 'R' Us catalog!
