She's hot
and a philosopher too.
Poverty is...
either destiny or stupidity.
Right.
Destiny or stupidity.
In my case, a bit of both.
My father left when I was 4.
This is the destiny part.
I was watching cartoons on TV.
The set was a house cut in half
I saw a book cover like that.
Will you keep my mail for me?
He didn't get many letters,
it was mostly bills and Junk mail.
I kept everything in a shirt box.
When it got too small
I put it all in a shoebox.
Then in 3 boxes, split
into bills, ads and letters.
One day I was talking
to my fat schoolmate Mairoldi.
I said I didn't think my dad
would come back.
I don't think my dad
will come back.
- Did he go on a trip?
- Yes.
- When?
- 7 years ago.
He started laughing, a lot.
He went blind on one eye.
That's the stupid part.
That was my last day at school.
I got thrown out.
I didn't want
to go anymore either.
While my mom watches soaps
on TVI stay in my room, drawing.
One-Eyed Zack
lives with Granny Doctrine.
"You have to
pay attention in class."
"Pay attention to
what the teachers say."
"If you don't
understand something, ask!"
"Pedro Alvares Cabral discovered
Brazil on April 22nd 1500."
Why?
Duh...
My mom drags her slippers
from the bathroom to the kitchen.
She opens the cupboard, gets
a glass, closes the cupboard...
opens the fridge, gets the
water bottle, closes the fridge...
fills the glass,
only haltway...
opens the fridge, puts the
bottle away, gets the glass...
opens the filter,
fills the glass...
drags her slippers from the
kitchen to the bedroom and says:
"Goodnight, son, I'm going to bed.
TVmakes me so sleepy..."
Goodnight, son. I'm going to bed.
TV makes me so sleepy...
Goodnight, mom.
Then I go to the kitchen,
get something from the fridge...
and go to the living room. I turn
the TVand watch a bit of everything.
I like it better
with the sound off.
It's like a fire,
or a lit up aquarium.
Only the light and the movement.
At 11 I get the binoculars.
A lot of people are still awake.
watching the neighbors...
is that fat people
go to bed late.
I don't know why,
it's statistics.
Among the last people to go to bed
there is at least one fat person.
I'd like to know
I've discovered
another important thing.
If you want to see something
with binoculars...
you can't switch
between windows.
You have to stay on one window
and wait. It's like fishing.
The most I've seen
was her in undies and bra.
SheJust passed.
I had been waiting for
nearly one hour and she passed.
It was worth it.
