Where were you.
As so often before, he’ll say:
In my shirt and right with you.
The red Java is glistening with a fresh coat of paint. Quite by accident, just out of boredom, the old man glances at the bush and bends down to Paul’s ear. Now Paul stands up and sees me. Why is he buttoning up his shirt.
The trick is not to go mad.
