For this mission, here's my basic kit...
LOVE is the Reason.

Don't we have a computerized referral desk? I mean, I don't think you can read my hand writings...
This is what I am saying...
Sugar anyone, I mean who wants to have their blood sugar count taken? It's not painful at all, just a microscopic ouch!
"Silence please", "silencio por favor", "silence s'il vous plaît", " ayaw ug saba, palihog"!
Data, data, data...
Be calm and wear eye glasses!
