Yes, it's as crazy as the title says it is! O_O ![[Image: clear.png]](http://forums.spacebattles.com/styles/default/xenforo/clear.png) 
You can either start from the beginning or skip to 7:30 (which is where the grand finale begins); your choice (and you won't regret it either way, I promise!).

I'd've been more impressed if all the AA was VI controlled and creating a wall of flak. Still I think more Bear's were shot down than what's operational in their inventory.

		Since the ending theme to Wayne & Shuster has been suggested as a gatesong, I thought a few of their better routines wouldn't be amiss here.
 Alas, the Stratford Baseball sketch is a-miss-ing from YouTube. But I found a couple of other sketches folks might enjoy.

		Yeah, when I first saw this trailer I wasn't too thrilled with The Who music for Peanuts (the kids are a bit too young for "teenage wasteland" to apply).... but the trailer itself sold me on "hey, this is classic Peanuts stuff!"''We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat
 them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.''
