THE LONG NIGHT OF THE CHILDHOOD

   A chick entered nervously the Monkey’s bar, went to a corner of the counter, called the monkey and told him:

   -I was spurned by a hen because I am still very small…

   But the monkey interrupted him with another sad history:

   -I don’t sell alcoholic drinks to underage!
