Ki? Hát, azt nem t’om. Én nem egy Hun, de sem egy aga. Egy név van, de egy név – az mi? Egy név az bűz, ősi és vad. Christ, this is hard in Hungarian. I think I’m reasonably close: Who? Well … that I don’t know (more like “dunno.”) I am not a Hun, but I am neither an agha. (Turkish nobility). There is a name, but a name … what’s that? A name is a stench, ancient and wild. Hungarian does not lend itself well to 3-letter sentences, as it is a “Lego language” that likes to add endings and beginnings to all its words instead of using prepositions and the such. And my verb choices are extremely limited at that character length. So more philosophical existential prose we have… ---

[Well, I’m impressed. Hungarian is a bitch of a language as it is.] Now we can see why the yen to not be big if we say a bit is not fun at all. ---

Hi Jim! Oh, hey Ray. How are you? I’m ok. And you? I’m set to go to the A&P to pick up some pie for Pi Day. But it’s not Pi Day yet, Jim. It’s not? No dum dum, it’s the 8th. Pi Day is on the 14th. Do not buy the pie. Oh, no, old pie is bad. Yes, old pie is bad and … And? And the pie is a lie. No! Yes, the pie is a lie. And pi is a lie, too. No way! Yes way! Pi is 3. 3.14 etc is a big lie! 3 is the way of God. Uh huh… I … see. But, but … no pie? No… no pie. [Sad] ---

Hey, all of you! We can not let the GOP get a new tax cut for Mr. Big Wig. He may cry, and fly his jet to the sea, but he can not get out of his due to the USA. A Fat Cat can not use a big bar of Au to buy the law. Not now, not as I can do any job to get my way. ---
