About Me


i was playing cards and i lost. i had no cash so i staked a good suit, not mine, one that an orthodox had on. i meant to take the suit during the night when he stripped off. i had to hand it over the next morning before eight. only he slept in his suit, bow tie and shoes. the council of seniors met to hand out my punishment. the leader wanted all my fingers from the left hand. the remaining seniors offered two. they bargained a bit and agreed on three.so i put my hand on the table and the man i'd lost to took a stick and with five strokes knocked off my three fingers...
