did you kill it with fire? We may need to call in a small scale nuclear strike to rectify that problem.

"Buzz" is still just hanging out on the desk. Yes, I named him.
I will call in the RAID strike later today.

6:00.00 PM EST - Chemical Weapon Deployed
6:15.00 PM EST - Damage Assesment Inconclusive - Second Strike Recommended

6:15.30 PM EST - Second Strike Deployed - Lethality Confirmed
