The crows are laughing at it?

Yeah, man.

- I guess the fish are reciting poetry.

- I guess so.

And the pigs are playing banjo?

And the dogs, let's see...

the dogs would be playing hockey, right?

- And the...

- Crows are laughing.

Crows are laughing. Right.

In the joint, I heard some tales.

Oh, boy, howdy. I heard some tall tales.

But at least those guys in there,

they had the decency to admit...

that that was just bullshit.

You know what I mean?

It was just bullshit.

They actually... They took pride...

Pride in it, that it was bullshit.

But the crows are laughing?

Oh, brother.

I mean, you're not playing

with a full deck, man.

You got one foot in the great beyond.

Max, what do you do when it's cold?

I put on more clothes.

I'm a cold-blooded bastard.

I can never get warm enough.

Gotta take a little nap after every fight.

- What's with the shoe?

- What's with minding your own business?

Boy, some partner I picked.

You didn't pick me. I picked you.

Why?

Because you gave me your last match.

You made me laugh.

The damn crows are laughing.

I remember the first time

I was in Catholic school.

A nun called me up in front of the class,

says, "Francis, stick out your hand."

So I stick out my hand.

She whacks it with a stick.

I said, "What did I do?"

She said, "You were talking."

I said, "No, I wasn't."

She says, "Yes, you were."

I said, "How could I be talking?

I don't know anybody here.

"This is my first day in school."

That's as far as we can take you.

Hey, chief, I thought

you were gonna take us to a town.

This is our town.

No wonder they lost the war.

Nobody can understand them.

- Been eating rice for a year?

- Yeah. We all have.

- My system couldn't handle that.

- No, it's very good for your system.

Look at my baby.

- He's healthy and pure.

- Yeah. Right.

He likes you, Max.

I think your...

This is it. This is our spot.

Are you sure?

Yeah, right here.

This is where we were going.

- Sure we can't take you anywhere?

- No, this is fine, man.

You guys take it easy.

- Thanks for the lift.

- All right.

Okay, I'll close it.

- Have a nice day.

- All right.

Bye. Hope he feels better.

Give me half an hour with those kids,

I'd get them straightened out.

- What happened?

- Can you imagine?

The kid unloaded on me...

and that broad has the nerve to say,

"Have a nice day."

- Let's get a drink.

- Okay.

How come you didn't pound

that old lady in the mouth?

What old lady?

The one that hit you in the palms

with the stick.

She was a nun.

Shut the door, you big dope.

You're letting all the smoke out.

Look at the size of that one.

How you doing, old-timer?

What'll you have, fellas?

Better check the big one's ID, Charlie.
