Of course, we didn’t know that Chrysler awarded such a thing to begin with, nor were we aware that Chrysler awarded anything to anyone ever.

One last thing to note, we’d avoid using the word “diddling” in proximity to the word “Wii” in general conversation lest there be some unfortunate misunderstanding.
