Sir Isaac (Hayes): a very cornyish post

Haverá por aí alguém, como yours trully na casa dos cinquenta, que não tenha dançado, dançado e voltado a dançar uns slows ao som do "Walk on by" do Isaac Hayes — indubitavelmente a mais brilhante careca de sempre da soul music?

E que não se lembre de como aqueles doze minutos pareciam sempre tão estranhamente curtos?

"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."
