My time stamp is obviously incorrect.
I respectfully request a pause to the game so I can go feed the rug rat.

Hey, if you want to pause, I have to read a book for class tomorrow. I would agree to a pause as well. Give me an hour or so, ok?
Actually, maybe you should let this bum acquire some points while there is still some hope in hell for him?

That is the jet engine(s) of a B-52 bomber, right wing inner pylon.
Edit: No, it's not. The wing's too low and small.

Nice comeback, give him the points on the ICBMS! The fact that he named all of them is impressive to say the least. I just named one and said ICBMs (Though I was first).
But the spitfire is MINE!
You have redeemed yourself, for now...
