It is the single simplest machine in the entire Universe!' The marketing girl soured him with a look 'All right, Mr Wiseguy,' she said, 'you're so clever, you tell us what colour it should be.'"
Protocoller: Step 2: Spin the Wheel of Fortune! Performer: Will the audience please message stop in the pad to stop the wheel of fortune? Navigator, what is the status? Navigator: Processing...
