Conversa da treta, para ser educado.

Bem, o número 1 vai ter de esperar, porque me apeteceu fazer algo completamente louco. Algo que a ser avaliado por um psi-qualquer coisa (pode ser quiatra ou cólogo) me garantia entrada directa no manicómio, sem ter de passar pela casa de partida e sem receber 2000€ -lembram-se quando era em escudos? Era muito menos. Bem, mas para ser justo, que propriedade se compra com 10000 escudos? A Rua do Ouro? Santa Apolónia?
Ok, só a introdução já não faz sentido nenhum...

Então, passemos à conversa da treta. O diálogo é em inglês, e lembrei-me disto ontem (hoje) enquanto tentava adormecer às seis da manhã. Porque é que me lembrei, é que eu não faço ideia. Deus escreve direito por linhas tortas, eu tenho ideias parvas. Cada macaco no seu galho; eu acho que me divirto mais do que ele a escrever. E pronto, acabei de reservar um lugar no Inferno. Não faz mal, eu gosto mais do tempo quente...

-"M' man, how 'you doin' ?"
-"I'm ok. You?"

-"Ever heard of Superman?"
