 ... невежество тем-то и тяжко, что невежда, не будучи ни прек-
     расным, ни благим, ни  разумным, кажется  довольным  самим
     собою, не считает себя нуждающимся иdoes not strive to
     which in his opinion he does not need.            (Plato)

 ...the patrons of ignorance are the most bitter enemies of mankind
     eternity...

 ... complete ignorance leads to complete stupidity ...
                                                  (K. Helvetsky)

      Smiling stupidly, *SAM* and Retor entered MOGROS. And...

 And the sharply swung door knocked out Arnie’s second eye, which 
did not fail to take advantage of the opportunity, rolling into the prehistoric
which unit is mistakenly called a computer, where I found it in
the next day the mouse dragged it into its hole for the amusement of the little ones
kids. But that, as they say, is a completely different story. And now
Arnie with arms outstretched, fingers spread out
went out the door into the evening twilight to scare passers-by with the dark pro-
the shaft of an empty eye socket. On the way, he stepped on something that was...
it spread under his shoe, makingcharacteristic smell of Co2.
I think it was his breakfast.  However, nothing can be said
for sure.

 * HIMSELF * - Maybe it’s better this way...
 Retor - Probably better...
 
 Then a sly smile appeared on *HIMSELF’s face, which he taught-
at Arnie's.  And when his face took on a serious expression again,
it glitters with triple magnification lenses with a sighting system
pouring and reminding about plans for the day, said:

 - Well, that means the pegestgoy girl has left us. Hm. We need to hit
   new to all lyubakgibs, or what?  I'll get to the point!
   So, no?  Those who disagree, is there something there, no?

 There were no disagreements.  During his apprenticeship with Arnie, * HIMSELF *
completely mastered the science of healing, talking and many other things, of course
valuable and necessary qualities of any fish that wants a feeling -
act like a fish out of water among your own kind. *HIMSELF* walked home
jumping on one leg for joy. He slipped near the bridge
for the rest of Arnie's breakfast...

                              - 2 -

 Having slipped, he hit his head on the railing of the bridge and hung from
it (the bridge) down. Long thin arms reached out from the water towards him and
her face, shining through the lenses of her glasses, looked at him reproachfully.  And then
*HIMSELF* was truly scared.  Erysipelas in the water first showed
he has a sign in the form of a fist with his ring finger out, and
Tom * HIMSELF * felt that something was dragging him with a terrible
force down. WaterThe fountains closed over him.

 Underwater * HIMSELF * appeared before the formidable King Pertun.

 Pertun - Are you unfortunate and are you a tormentor of various snakes and others?
           creatures of the sea, are you, by your stupidity, thoughtlessness
           or hammered the heads of surface creatures with malicious intent
           with their pathetic morals.

 * HIMSELF * just whined pitifully in response. 

 Pertun - You are found guilty.  The punishment for your deeds will be
           children castration. Put the sentence into effect!

                           - 3 -

 * HIMSELF * was pumped out on the shore. His whole face was covered in mud
and there was a mayonnaise jar hanging on the nose. Muddy water pushes you
poured out of my mouth. There was blood flowing from my pants...

 Retor tried to give him mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration,
leksya and the result was that * HIMSELF * opened his eyes, in the eyes
his was unbearable pain and otherworldly despair.  He no longer-
when he is not aiming for leadership positions.  The doctors will explain later
him that with strong suggestion or self-hypnosis it is really possible
an action may occur, which in this situation was castration
tion. Science knows such cases.  But *HIMSELF* is unlikely to become
this is easier. He made a decision (for the first time in his life, without outsiders
help), came to his senses, as he would say later. Let him *HIMSELF* and Arnie
cripples, LAMPRIPE will exist as long as the lubakrybs live in the world!
