Whiskered Usurper

Неприглядна ученья картина, и работа стоит. А как же. Чуть отвернешься, а там вон что!



Рабочее место захватили, на молоко покушались (хорошо, что с медом было), увещевания усами смахнули и улеглись.
Пришлось устроиться в уголочке с книжкой.

Easter

The girl stared at him as if green toads had begun to push their way between his lips. Then she said, "I don't know about any of that Christian stuff. I'm a pagan."

The woman behind the counter said, "I think it's like Latin or something for 'Christ has risen,' maybe."
"Really?" said Wednesday.
"Yeah, sure," said the woman. "Easter. Just like the sun rises in the east, you know."
"The risen son. Of course – a most logical supposition."
