Duke: Whoa... holy kick wax, Robin! Earl: What's up, Pop? Duke: Excellency? Just calling with an update on your winter Olympic team... Dictator: Cutting it a little close, aren't you, Duke? Duke: Yes, sir... but I think we're onto something! We just got a scouting report from Mpztko, a village in the Berzerkistan Alps... they have no roads in Mpztko, and as a result, they produce some of the finest cross-country skiers in the world! Dictator: Your report's dated. I had Mpztko firebombed months ago. Duke: What? Why? Dictator: They kept grumbling about the lack of roads. Duke: Okay. So that part checks out... Earl: Excellency? Earl here. Were there any survivors? Dictator: There better not be.

What on earth is kick wax?
zathb Premium Member almost 15 years ago
kick wax is used on x country skis to help grip the snow.

If there are any survivors they’d probably be great in the biathlon.

That Duke has little bubbles (or whatever) swirling around his head must be an indication that he’s on something while talking with “Excellency”. Probably explains how Duke is able to stand associating with this monster. Have to wonder, though, how Earl gets through the day.

Earl only exists for the almighty buck. He has no conscience.
