Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. We have breaking news - Downtown Sumshadagrene has been overrun by...what appears to be a horde of purse salesmen. City officials have recieved several complaints of these unwanted solicitors, and Mayor Bogard has vowed to put an end to their rising tide.

Actually, the price is negotiable. For example, this little number here can go for-
Oh for-BUSTAH WOOF! *CRASH*

We'll have more on this story as it comes. We now return to your regularly scheduled ASB battle, already in progress...
