where I was heading because I fell into this open manhole ~ ~ a

bunch of guys were eating lunch around. And I thought, w ble

strange place to eat lunch, I mean, I usually eat aro~d ata '

you know? So now, I'm looking at the earth from this enbr~lt ~y
new perspective, and the guys that were eating lunch rum I f 11

yelling at me to get out ofthe sewer. Like I really wanted ~ a

down here? So I get sick of them yelling at me, and I run 0 three
looking for another exit. It must have been, oh I'd say about

or four days before I got out. And I find out that the sewers

and I find a bunch of birds, just like, sitting on the shore: So

think this is my chance, and I swim to the shore and begm II

chasing these birds, so they can, you know, on my head. But a

Mac truck from McDonald's) starts blaring its horn at me, h. e
