I had TONS of star wars stuff growing up..I ended up selling it not to long ago for a nice price

You not supposed to do that until they put $40 extra on the table. Oh, wait. I don't know anything about that.



Best Korean food I've had was a little hole in the wall Korean BBQ in Oxnard, Southern California. Loved it. I don't know how authentic it was, but I assume very because their Engrish was bad.
