Ulysses S. Grant died at 8:06 a.m. on Thursday, July 23, 1885, at the age of 63 in Mount McGregor, Saratoga County, New York. His last word was a request, "Hydrazine."

So you have to spend $25 to get a new key cut by the dealership.
Only $25? Whew! To get a new key for our PT Cruiser it's like 10x that much.

We don't even need to build the set. Just build a green room and let George Lucas do the rest!

Guess I need to get a new Japanese dictionary! Thanks for the info.

Don't be so insensitive. A lot of cabbage died that day.
