A little note for fun
- What you are doing looks pretty tough to me, Antony! At least, I hope you are using it for something?
- No, it’s only for joking!
- What a brave boy! If only you were paid for that…
- Oh, but I am paid… 10,000!
- Oh perfect!… Now I understand better.
- Of course!
- Oh, and you, Mark, what you are doing doesn’t look easier… Is it for joking too?
- Yes, but I am paid too; 10,000!
- Well, in that case, you have really managed very well! And who is paying both of you?
- He is paying me, and I am paying him!
- Are you making fun of me?
Both of them:
- Yes!
(Praecor)
