I wonder if they have a snooze function.
you’d need a pretty big baseball bat!
I wonder what this wake-up service costs? Seems much more effective than the crappy digital alarm clock I’ve been using.
I’d bet a lot of money that this wasn’t a random crime carried out by people that didn’t know the victim. It has all the hallmarks of a payback of some sort.
I wonder if they’ll visit him in hospital like the bikies tend to do?
