"You and I, we must carry on, Gemma. I cannot afford the luxury of love. I must marry well. And now I must look after you.

Death to your cinnamon bun-smelling malls! Death to your power walking and automatic car windows and I'm With Stupid T-shirts! The Republic of ChaCha will never bend to your side-of-fries -drive -through-please-oh-would-you-like-ketchup-with-that corruption! MoMo B.
