Have been here for more than 10 months. Some others are a day or two later than him, and some are a month later than him, but the vast majority of customers in Yucai have basically passed more than half of their lives.

So I have discussed with many people about how to spend this year, and the unanimous conclusion is: how to live lively, even Yan Jingsheng, who has always been low-key, thinks so, and he inadvertently said a sentence that impressed me deeply, he said that this is the first year that the group of people have spent here, but it is the last year of this life, so it must be grand.

Early in the morning, I took Baozi and Li Shishi Liu Bang to Yucai, where red lanterns were hung everywhere, Spring Festival couplets were posted, and the children carried firecrackers in their pockets, competing to chase and play, no matter how great they were in the future, but after all, they were still children, and the oldest was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and in addition to the local students, most of them came from poor families, and most of them could not go home for the New Year, but this was also the first New Year for them to wear new clothes and firecrackers.

Xu Delong led a team of soldiers to patrol inside, mainly for fear of causing a fire, all of them were here today, and some of the soldiers who had already had a big family and a big business donated all their property to Yucai, strictly speaking, they were also shareholders of the school.

Duan Tianwolf Cheng Fengshou originally wanted to take his apprentice back to his hometown for the New Year, but in the end he decided to stay, Cheng Fengshou wanted to accompany the hundreds of children who came with him, Duan Tianwolf and Duan Tianbao discussed that they didn't have any relatives when they went back to their hometown anyway, it was better to have an atmosphere in the school. Not to mention Yuan. Carry forward the glory of China's marrying a chicken and marrying a dog with a dog, and has regarded Yucai as her own home, this New Year, she plans to take her parents over to meet Fang Zhenjiang's parents, I really didn't expect that our tiger hero will not avoid this step in the end, thinking of the good man Wu Song carrying a few bottles of wine and whispering to visit the old man, I feel very funny, in Wu Sangui's words, sad, sad...

However, it is said that the old man is also a martial arts obsessive, and Fang Zhenjiang is really lucky. Unlike me, who is not good at math and has an old accountant, our second brother next door is even more suspenseful, and he was crazy obsessed with Shanghai Shenhua when he first fell in love with his second sister-in-law. As a result, his father-in-law is a dead fan of Bayi, and the second sister-in-law is so nervous that he is nervous to death in the domestic league, and the two of them almost failed because of this, and they have not watched football for the past two years. The old man switched to Peking Opera, and the second brother was crazy and obsessed with opera, and he had to listen to it at least twice a week, and he had to bring his second sister-in-law. I thought it was harmonious, but within half a year, the second sister-in-law had a heart attack.

Teachers who live locally. Including the Four Heavenly Kings and Fang La. They all said that it was good to celebrate the New Year at school. Such a big school, so many staff. At first, I was still worried about who to call and who not to call how to divide the pile, but then I suddenly found that now it is extremely difficult to pick customers from ordinary people or ordinary people from customers, fortunately, if you don't go home on this Chinese New Year's Eve, except that customers are some people who know well, I will no longer bother with this brain, but in general, the nature of this dinner is also defined as a gathering within our customers.

Then there is the meeting place, the place is definitely not good, in the canteen is too unatmospheric, because we have a theatrical performance in addition to eating. The auditorium was too serious, and finally Genghis Khan proposed that it would be better to have a bonfire party on the grass, and as soon as he put forward this idea, it aroused everyone's interest, and many people immediately began to set up grills and firewood, so I set the place on the lawn of the old campus, and set up a 10-meter-square stage in front of it.

New Year is the most important festival for Chinese, these days the head of the blessing text message like a headless fly on everyone's mobile phone, I am especially busy, in addition to Yucai staff and some customers, tiger, two fat, Jiang Menshen and other friends also sent a lot.

Many people have sent gifts, and Chen Kejiao has sent eternity... Vase, this girl seems to love to give away vases. Gu Ye to Yucai up and down the staff each sealed a big red envelope, this is just a face, in fact, to my customers also prepared rich gifts, since the old man knows the inside story, often come to Yucai to hang out, don't look at the old man in front of the general people full of style, but the thinking is still more traditional, always feel that in front of these people they are juniors, it is a bit of a sloppy.

Jin Shaoyan is even more straightforward, whether it is an employee or a student, Yucai has one count, and the place where it is sent is a real ticket!

As for the children's candy and firecrackers, this is what Baozi thought of, after all, I can't compare with the loser boy and Lao Gu of the Jin family in spending money, and there is only so much I can do, but the children seem to be more interested in these things, and now the children are particularly fond of Baozi, and affectionately call her Mrs. Bao, Liu Bang said that Baozi is stronger than his grandson Liu Bei, who has not known how many generations, is better than his grandson Liu Bei, who has not known how many generations, in fact, this is an invitation to buy people's hearts, this whole is a childhood shadow, When Baozi was a child, when she arrived at the New Year, she was very envious of those little boys who had firecrackers, and the old accountant didn't buy them for her, and when she made her own money, she bought a lot of firecrackers every year, and even this time I bought a lot of firecrackers for the children...

After 7 o'clock in the evening, people began to gather slowly, and in less than half an hour, dozens of grills were full of people, heroes, 300 writing and painting, and doctors all arrived, as well as those emperors, Li Shimin, they used Zhu Yuanzhang as the youngest, and squeezed him out early to occupy a grill closest to the stage.

A few tables were set up under the stage for Yan Jingsheng and me to sit, and I saw that the mutton and wine were in place, and the time was just right, so I signaled that tonight's host show could start.

Xiuxiu stared at the bottom and asked me in a low voice, "What should I say about the name or something?" ”

I followed her gaze, it turned out that Cheng Fengshou and Duan Tianwolf were here, and Xiao Liuzi and their gang of ruffian chefs, this is different from a meeting, and the meeting can also find an excuse to spend these non-customers, and it doesn't make sense if you don't bring people to the dinner. Besides, these people shouldn't have participated in the meeting, and the last time they smashed the thunder, they all went together, what else can I say?

I said to Xiuxiu, "It's okay, let's say what I want." ”

Xiuxiu pulled another host, Mao Sui on the stage, Mao Sui looked ahead, full of energy, and said loudly: "Friends, on the occasion of the Spring Festival, the vast number of talented colleagues gather together..."

TEXT: "LNDGENTEMAN, THIS-TIME... e+, we don't plan to broadcast this party on Central Channel 4 for the time being. ”

Xiuxiu's face flushed, but she also relaxed a lot, and at this time, Mao Sui had already said, "Among us people, there are..." Mao Sui understood, and hurriedly turned around: "Next, I would like to invite President Xiao to speak to you." Yan Jingsheng next to me smiled heroically and rarely: "You just call him Xiaoqiang, what is Principal Xiao?" ”

I stood up with a sad face and said, "Why are you talking again?" Can't you do it if you don't talk about it? ”

Everyone laughed: "Say two words, say two words." ”

I spread my hands and said, "What do I say you can feel happy, most of you here don't expect a salary increase, and they don't want to evaluate their job titles." Again. You're richer than I am. Several of the titles have come to an end... It's a good day anyway... You don't know about the New Year, do you? ”

Everyone laughed: "No." ”

I sat down and said, "Okay, let's celebrate the New Year." "I originally wanted Yan Jingsheng to say a few words. As a result, this kid was pulled by Xu Delong and they went down to eat roast lamb shank. I touched it left and right again, and saw that the buns and they also sat in the nearest pile of people to drink wine and eat meat, and looked back at me, hehe, he smiled evilly. I kicked the table and said angrily, "Who the came up with the idea to leave Lao Tzu up alone." I turned my face and said to Li Shimin and the people in the stall, "Your Majesty, why don't you come and sit here?" This is the leadership seat. ”

Li Shimin smiled: "If you don't go, it won't be able to burn." ”

I didn't care about the three-seven-twenty-one ass squeezed between them, and said, "Then I will also mingle with the crowd." ”

The four emperors shouted in unison: "Who are the masses?" ”

I hurriedly changed my words: "I am who I am, and I mingle with Your Majesty." ”

On the stage, Mao Sui said: "Xiaoqiang's speech is really concise and to the point, eh, Xiuxiu, let me ask you, do you know the origin of the Spring Festival?" ”

Xiuxiu: "Then tell everyone..."

Zhang Qing shouted below: "Don't fix the set on TV, if you have a program, hurry up." ”

Mao Sui glared at him, and then said: "Then let's invite the first program: chorus, "Song of Heroes", performers, heroes in Liangshan." ”

The heroes who had just grilled the meat wondered, "Ah, why are we the first one?" ”

Zhang Qing sighed and said: "Blame me for being too talkative, Mao Sui, this kid has a personal vendetta." ”

The heroes can only put down the wine and meat in their hands and come to the stage, I have already notified about this art show, the program is indeed arranged in advance, and I declare that it is best to perform in reverse, those who know martial arts can't simply play boxing, and those who can write seals with both hands are not allowed to go up to fool the audience, and the heroes perform chorus, barely in violation.

On this point, Hua Rong and Fang Zhenjiang were naturally also standing in the queue, and Yuan glanced at them inexplicably and said, "When did they become heroes in Liangshan?" ”

Kaoru Ping shouted, "The family members also come up, hurry up." ”

Xiuxiu consciously stood beside Hua Rong, Yuan had to go up in a daze, Bao Jin took a deep look at Bao Yin, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Yinzi, you can go too." ”

Baoyin wondered: "You should go, I'm not a group of them." ”

The heroes all shouted: "Come up, come up, your brother is not in the same group as us." ”

Baoyin had a rough personality, and he stood on the edge of Fang Zhenjiang without much thought, Lu Junyi stood at the front and commanded, and shook his hand: "Ready... Even! ”

The heroes tore open the broken gong's throat: "The river flows eastward..."

The crowd at the bottom is overwhelmed, it's so ugly!

Cheng Fengshou and Duan Tianwolf were sitting together, and Cheng Fengshou muttered, "Why don't I know when they will arrange the show?" ”

Duan Tianwolf said expressionlessly: "As long as you don't let us act." ”

These words happened to be heard by Mao Sui, and as soon as the heroes finished howling, Mao Sui immediately jumped on the stage and said: "Next, we invite our two major kung fu stars, Teacher Cheng and Teacher Duan, to perform a show, and I said it in advance." Martial arts performances are not permitted. ”

Duan Tianwolf suddenly became cramped: "I don't know anything." ”

Everyone shouted, "That's not good, we all have programs." ”

Cheng Fengshou said with a smile: "Can you sing, let's sing together." ”

Duan Tianwolf scratched his head and said, "Only old songs." ”

"Then sing Everest."

Duan Tianluo hesitated, "This is too high, isn't it?" ”

Cheng Fengshou said confidently: "It's okay, let's practice in one breath, and I can't even sing a song?" ”

Duan Tianluo nodded: "That's good." ”

As a result, as soon as the two of them came on stage, they were nervous and didn't know what to say, if you let them go to the ring and kill whoever and whom, it would naturally be nothing to say, but they were squeezed onto the stage, and they couldn't help but show their timidity, and the two of them held their hands behind their backs. blushing, like two elementary school students, in the end, Xiuxiu gave them a head: "Who brought it, the call of the ancients." Ready to sing..."

So the two of them sang along, and the first few words were okay, but later it was obvious that there was a tune out of tune, and I don't know if it was Cheng Fengshou or Duan Tianwolf... Or maybe they all ran away. A few words before the climax, the emotions of the two of them were obviously mobilized, their faces were flushed and their heads were raised, and their voices gradually became higher. As a result, when it came to the sentence of "Everest", the green tendons on the necks of the two of them moved, but they were silent, like two silent range hoods. You look at me, I look at you. It looks like they're all waiting for the other party to save the scene. The two hung on the stage for a while, and went down together with red faces. Duan Tianwolf knew that he had lost someone, and complained: "I want to sing "A Little Poplar", you have to sing so high. ”

And then there was no need to force it, Xiaoliu took the cooking masters up and sang a pop song, the bastards naturally won't hide their singing, and they howl hard where they can't sing, that's called a heartbreak, and they don't even feel the noise and say that 50 sheep will be saved if they sing like this.

At this time, Mao Sui rushed to the stage, glanced at his watch and said loudly: "Now this time is the time for the Spring Festival Gala to begin, let's also have some wonderful programs." ”

I approached Yan Jingsheng and whispered, "You didn't ask for a striptease, did you?" ”

Yan Jingsheng: "..."

The heroes were suddenly unhappy, and shouted, "It was garbage time just now, huh?" ”

Mao Sui stepped aside, and Xiuxiu reported: "Next, please enjoy the sketch "Selling Abduction", the performer."

, Li Shishi, Liu Bang. ”

Immediately applause below, the second fool and Li Shishi walked up to the stage and sat on a bench, Liu Bang rode a broken bicycle and swayed in front of the two of them, people who had seen this sketch were stunned, they were all waiting to see Liu Bang fooling the fool, but I didn't expect the second fool to play the big fool, the second fool sat on the chair, smiling and looking serene, Liu Bang was about to ride to the bottom of the stage, the second fool did not speak, Liu Bang supported the ground with his feet, the nose was not the nose, the face was not the face and said: "Hey, it's time for you to speak!" ”

The second fool suddenly pointed at Liu Bang and said: "The head is big and the neck is thick, and he is not the emperor." ”

Li Shimin snorted and looked at the other three emperors who were humming, he was the only one here who was from a serious aristocratic background, and those who were not emperors were indeed in the "man" column. And coincidentally, these three really fit the big head and thick neck...

The people below had already laughed, and Master Li was also led by the second fool to forget the words, lying on his shoulder and laughing vigorously, Liu Bang got out of the car and shouted to the below: "Let me play a big fool, what do you think?" ”

The audience shouted in unison: "No, this is called anti-string." ”

To be honest, I haven't watched them rehearse this show, even if he is stupidly intellectual, he may not be able to memorize the lines completely, not to mention that it is still a big foolish role, the whole sketch is completed under the condition that his preface does not match the afterword, people laughed forward and backwards, Liu Bang said several words were mixed back, so angry that his nose and eyes were crooked, and finally put the crutches on his arm and hung them to ride a bicycle down, everyone shouted together: "Leave the car!" ”

The second fool: "What kind of bicycle do you want?" ”

Liu Bang said angrily: "You are right about this line." ”

…

followed by 300 street dance, in fact, it is to beautify the general martial arts movements, but the scene of 300 doing Thomas full rotation together is still very shocking, and it can be taken to the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

After the show ended, I suddenly received a phone call that Qin Shi Huang, who was far away at the Xianyang excavation site, wanted to give us a video New Year's greeting. Li Shishi hurriedly put the wireless Internet book in front, and after a while, he connected to the video of Qin Shi Huang, behind him was a large venue, and the people around him were still in a hurry, and it seemed that the New Year was not idle, and these people did not forget to respectfully call him "Yinggong" when they passed by Qin Shi Huang's side, we were eager to hope that the fat man could come over for the New Year, but the Qinling No. 2 project was progressing to the most critical time, Qin Shi Huang was not able to come back after all.

Everyone shouted in a mess: "Brother Ying, Happy New Year" and "His Majesty the First Emperor has a good New Year." Several emperors stood up, and Qin Shi Huang leaned his neck to look at the roast leg of lamb in our hands, and asked, "Eat and pinch (what)?" ”

I raised the leg of mutton in my hand: "Who told you not to come back?" At this time, I saw a life-size Ma Qing wearing a "P" hat on the huge screen behind Qin Shi Huang, everyone else was busy, and the fat man was playing games on the video wall, and I said, "Brother Ying." You can't be passive and slack off. "Well, it's the size of a football, it's fun.

Qin Shi Huang glanced back and said, "Oh. Every day, the law (plays) half a small silk (time), crooked (that) everyone is very good? ”

Baozi Liu Bang and Li Shishi both came to greet him, and an engineer wearing a hard hat walked up to Qin Shi Huang and said, "Yinggong." The third wall has been exposed. ”

Qin Shi Huang looked at us and said, "Okay. It's good. I'm hungry and I'll get back in a few days. ”

In the chaos, the fat man didn't notice that Xiang Yu was not in front of us. I haven't told him about it yet.

At this time, it is the time when the bonfire is flourishing and the wine and meat are fragrant, everyone is excited, Mao Sui has been dragged by the heroes and poured a pass, which will come to the stage again with Xiuxiu, if it weren't for Xiuxiu to help him, it is estimated that he would have run away, Mao Sui held a leg of mutton in one hand and a microphone in the other, he put the leg of mutton on his mouth and said: "Please enjoy the Yaoqin solo below, "Friend", performed by Yu Boya for everyone. After speaking, when he walked off the stage, he took two bites of the microphone in his other hand...

Everyone laughed and wondered: Didn't you let you do your old job, why did Yu Boya still play the piano?

The piano table has been set up on the stage, and there is a microphone inserted next to the piano, only to see Yu Boya come up and salute everyone, and then sit in front of the piano, the familiar rhythm sounded, Yu Boya suddenly came to the microphone and shouted: "Friend, friend, have you ever thought of me, if you are enjoying happiness, please forget me..."

This is definitely anti-string! Those who engage in instrumental music engage in vocal music, and it is popular, which is no different from Chopin singing "Mice Love Rice".

After Yu Boya finished singing a song and was about to go down, Li Bai got up and said, "Old Yu, play your song "Mountains and Flowing Water" for us again." Yan Zhenqing and Liu Gongquan immediately responded one after another, Zhong Ziqi died, this song has become a swan song, who of these literature and art lovers doesn't want to take this opportunity to listen to it?

Yu Boya said apologetically: "Bosom friends are hard to find, and I have vowed not to play this song again." ”

Li Bai said: "How do you know that there is no bosom friend of you among the people here?" Again, a group of people strongly agreed.

Yu Boya thought about it, then sat down and said, "Then I'll make an exception today." Before he could play the piano with his hand, several strings were broken, and Yu Boya was shocked: "Is there a mistake, there are so many bosom friends?" ”

How can it be... It's strange that the Yaoqin continues to play "Friends".

Mao Sui had already gnawed half of the microphone out of the wire, and said, "This hamstring is so much..."

Xiuxiu had no choice but to go on stage alone and said: "Many of you may have watched the next show, but I still want to introduce these two actors, please Guan Yu and Zhou Cang!" ”

Who dares not to praise the second master's field? Suddenly there was a round of applause, the second master and Zhou Cang walked on stage, and the two didn't say much, the second master was on the left and Zhou Cang was on the right, and the second master said: "Crosstalk pays attention to talking and singing." ”

Zhou Cang: "Huh." ”

Second Master: "It's not easy to say. ”

Zhou Cang: "Oh? ”

… These two people are running this and say that cross talk is coming! When the second master said, "What dynasty does he care about his temper", everyone was happy: "Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong"! The second master doesn't know how he heard about this paragraph.

The second master went down, Xiuxiu came to the stage with a smile, and said to the audience: "The actor who performed this show said, I would like to use this paragraph

Qin Qiong, who has not yet met, Qin Shubao salutes, and if you have the opportunity, I hope to really learn. ”

Li Shimin hurriedly stood up and nodded at Guan Yu, expressing his appreciation.

Xiuxiu continued to announce the curtain: "Next, please listen to the four-person chorus "I really want to live for another 500 years". Performers: Li Shimin, Zhao Kuangyin, Temujin, Zhu Yuanzhang. ”

Everyone: "Uh..."Isn't this a troublemaker, will Li Shimin still have Zhao Kuangyin if he lives for another 500 years?

The show in the back is good and bad, but everyone is not for the show, this is actually a gathering of friends, everyone keeps laughing and persuading drinking, Baozi is so excited that she didn't pay attention to put down the people around her, she leaned on my shoulder, and said: "It would be great if I could do this every day in the future." ”

The program was carried out at the same time. There were also many hotlines and faxes, in addition to the parents of students from all over the country expressing their gratitude to Yucai, first of all, Tiger wished his master Dong Ping and all his uncles and uncles a happy New Year; Liu Xia brought the red, yellow and green three Mao under the seat to wish Yucai, heroes and heroes, fortune and treasure; Marshal Yue Fei called the 300 family army: I hope that while you have a happy and fulfilling life, you will not forget to urge the children to study. In order to lay the foundation for the sustainable development of Yucai, in addition, Qin Hui performed well after "taking office", do not read; At the same time, congratulatory messages were also sent by: Beijing, Shanxi, Shandong Yucai Wenwu School. Shanghai Jingwu Hall, Heilongjiang Weilong Taekwondo Hall, Hebei Xingyi Boxing Research Society... These calls and letters were broadcast by Xiuxiu every other time, and later we also got several people on the scene to be in charge of the hotline. All the mantissa with "6 places are our lucky parents, and you can get a zodiac painting made by Wu Daozi and others.

The most brilliant show in the back is really performed by these old people, and the name is "Magic Pen Ma Liang". First, Yan Liben, Zhang Zeduan and Wu Daozi collaborated on a painting. The man in the painting has a fierce face and is holding two large axes. It was the Liangshan hero Black Whirlwind Li Kui, and then by Wang Xizhi they were inscribed. The paintings and words are of course vivid and handsome, but many people below are not good at this (such as me), and they have no interest in watching it for a while, but suddenly those words turned into butterflies and flew away, and then Li Kui broke the paper with a broken voice, which can scare us a lot, and after being stunned for a while, they all applauded for a while, Duan Jingzhu was afraid that they really drew a Li Kui, and cautiously glanced at the place where Li Kui was sitting, and this black guy didn't know when he ran to make a cameo for others, Literal butterfly, in fact, is just a shredded paper head floated away, this as long as the paper is engraved in advance, it is rare to be the last one, than David. Copperfield isn't bad, and I don't know how they got the ground in the end.

There was also a person who was bad at the scene: Su Wu made an exception today, drunk drunk, jumping back and forth between various bonfires with his stick in his hand, and chanting words in his mouth: "Don't throw away the sheepskin, if this thing can be of great use in a famine year..."

Later, Liu Bangdi's little concubine Fengfeng also came, and she also sang a song "Who Said Women Are Not as Good as Men" on stage, although the singing was average, but everyone still slapped their lives for the bouquet of Mulan, and Mulan said embarrassedly: "It's just such a little thing, and it's made up to sing?" ”

When the clock struck 12 times, Yucai suddenly made a loud noise, reflecting half of the world, everyone no longer knew each other well, whether it was a customer or not, they all blessed each other, said auspicious words, and after a while of excitement, it gradually restored order, and then continued to perform, this will be the program list on the ground The program has been performed, and the local people who go up behind the performances are punitive, such as guessing the boxing and losing, drinking and stealing rape were discovered, and the night is still long, you have to get a few people for everyone to be lively, and finally it is time to move unlucky, was arrested and wanted to go up to perform, he said to think about it, and when Fang La sang a song and let him go on, Shi Qian came to the stage unhurriedly, put down a big bag, pointed to the bag and said: "Everyone's wallets are in my bag, if you want me to go down and pay it back, if you let me perform the show, you won't give it back." ”

Only then did everyone realize that they were holding their pockets and scolding Shi Qian, but in just 10 minutes, they took out hundreds of pockets... This is also tonight's repertoire.

There is still a matter of cola, and after a while, Hua Tuo was caught, and the old man learned to move his chest and said to us: "You let me go down, otherwise I will be in your flesh in a while..."

Although he knew he was mostly joking, people let him go down... It's a risk you can't afford to take.

Wang Yin suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Have you noticed that the person who should perform the show tonight has not been on stage yet." ”

I shook my hand vigorously and said, "I've already spoken..."

Wang Yin said: "Sit down, it's not about you." ”

I sat down stupidly and asked the bun next to me, "Then who is he talking about?" ”

Master Li smiled and said, "Cousin is so stupid, that person is far away in front of him." ”

Everyone looked at me and smiled, and at the same time looked at the bun, which was unaware of it in my arms, and looked up at me and asked, "Who?" ”

At this time, everyone suddenly shouted together: "Buns, come one!" ”

Baozi sat up violently: "I can't sing or dance, what are you asking me to perform?" ”

Everyone: "Then we don't care, you have to mean one, right?" ”

Baozi had to stand up and thought for a long time, and then he said: "Then I'll give you a thousand cups of performance without getting drunk." ”

When everyone heard this name, their eyes lit up, and they asked, "How to act?" ”

Baozi said: "It's very simple, it's to drink, although you can't really drink a thousand glasses without getting drunk, but I don't have anything to do with drinking this jar of wine, do you believe it or not?" She said and pointed to a round belly jar on the ground, this jar can hold at least 20 catties of wine, and this is a craft brew, much higher than the juniper degree on the market, everyone saw that the bun was already crumbling now, no one believed that she could drink into this jar again, and I also said worriedly: "Can you do it?" This is not something to be desired. ”

Baozi poured a bowl of wine without saying a word, and everyone applauded, Baozi poured another bowl, just drank two sips, suddenly threw the bowl, stumbled a few times in place, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry everyone, I... The performance was smashed. Then he fell into my arms with a thud and fell asleep.

Everyone: "..."
