"Ninguém me liga..." ou "Sinto-me como o Calimero"

Ao contrário daquela senhora arquitecta do PS e da outra senhora doutora recentemante medalhada pelo ex-secretário-geral do PS, que receberam dezenas, eu não recebi nem um SMS a "convocar-me" para a manif de ontem em Belém.
"In North America the black bear was seen by [Samuel] Hearne swimming for hours with widely open mouth, thus catching, like a whale, insects in the water. Even in so extreme a case as this, if the supply of insects were constant, and if better adapted competitors did not already exist in the country, I can see no difficulty in a race of bears being rendered, by natural selection, more and more aquatic in their structure and habits, with larger and larger mouths, till a creature was produced as monstrous as a whale."
