Gil Promo

After tapping on Gil's Hat mark I had a great idea: I borrowed Professor Frink's time machine. Figured I'd go back in time, give myself some advice, and stock tips, really turn my life around. But I fell off the bike around 2008... had to live through the great recession all over again. Bad times. Then a fella called Jack the Ripper found the bike in the past, and used it to come back to the present. And now I can't wait to get rid of him. Before he gets rid of me! If the offer is accepted Whew, Ol' Gil dodged a bullet that time. Well, more like a butcher knife, actually. If the offer is declined Well, that's it for Ol' Gil. Not just financially this time, but mortally. On the plus side, at least I won't live long enough to go bankrupt.
