Hey looks like Darth Vader’s lost some weight.

So yeah, you just follow this road..till you come to a cross road with a buzzard in the tree, never you mind him, just take the left path and keep on it, oh say..for like a day. You’ll pass the swamp of the undead, and the city of the belligerent saints – they do good pizzas there, in my humble opinion. Yeah you keep following that road until you see signs for Kingdom of Rancidity, and you want to take a right, the roads a bit hidden behind a tree that throws apples at you, mind, and then follow that until you reach Wisconsin. You can’t miss it. Stinks of cheese and beer it does. Oh..btw..can I buy your dog?
