I've traveled over 1400 miles, only one dead so far (sorry Allie that being on the verge of death couldn't wait 23 more miles) and $138 in the bank. The rivers are acting like they want me to lose when I caulk those wagons and float across, meeting the line of rocks that goes the entire length of the river. I'm down to three oxen so I'm going at a mind numbing rate across the prairie. When all of a sudden my axle breaks. The Indian, who just happened to be passing by 200 miles from the nearest outpost says he will fix it for $150. He doesn't seem to be fooled into taking my $138, bastard, so now what do I do. I try to steal from someone else's wagon, get shot and that's all she wrote, thanks Oregon Trail, good times.
Best facebook application ever. Even though I didn't qualify for the survey which would have given me the fake dollars I needed to fix the wagon and not start my short life of Midwestern crime. Thanks for shooting me Laurie, if I would have had to stop and rest for the mysterious ailment of "Really wants a cigar" one more time (or Bryan's constant bouts with cholera, which I have no idea what the symptoms are but it sounds like an STD), I would have been offing those freeloaders left and right.
