Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Lash The speaker paused for a moment to pass his handkerchief over his fevered brow. Up from the ugly, leering, little eyes swept the swabbing linen, traversing the smooth top of the round head and disappearing mysteriously at the rear. The reason for this was obvious. The teeth of time take kindly to the hirsute and the speaker was very bald. Only a narrow fringe of reddish hair divided the rear depression of his fevered brow from the nape of his fat red neck. A plump and hairy fist smote the table and the glasses jingled. "Don´t fool yourselves, you young fellows," advised the bald gentleman, in a curious gusty voice. "I´ve been all through it, clean to the retired list," with a wicked wink, "and I know, that´s all." You´ve got to work harder this year than you did the first; you´ve got to a point where there ain´t no layin´ down for you if you want to keep on fodderin´. ´Cause why? ´Cause they´re on, or think they are, and they´re gettin´ uneasy. You think everything´s lovely, do you? Well, take a little advice from the old man that´s now on the sideline, and aim to get busy from now on.
