This is a list of all the members of CR4 and when they are most likely to be online.

This guy right here makes good bows. If we raid his house first we will be well armed and can easily take out the rest.

Re: Caption This for 06/07/13

So I was having this dream...

.

I was standing beside Desmond Tutu (of course) at the monthly meeting, getting a feather in my cap, for giving my presentation on the use of Excel saying something like:

.

'...no, there is no need to re-type the entire formula in each cell. Just copy and paste from the cell above and the appropriate corrections will be made...'

.

When I realize, ...

...neither Desmond Tutu nor I are wearing any pants!

.

How did I forget to wear pants?

How did I not notice till now?

What a strange coincidence that Desmond Tutu forgot to wear pants on the very same day! What are the odds?

...or could that just be part of his custom?

Is that a toothbrush holder hanging near his waist? What could it possibly be hanging from?

Okay guys back to the drawing board beng we have to make a few changes to our raiding the CR4 members houses.

The raid on the guy with all the bows didn't go as well as planned. As you know we got of bows but apparently they guy doesn't do much for arrows.
