Something I saw:

A woman is sitting on a bench. She leans over, takes an oversized white handkerchief out of a leather briefcase. Her feet and knees are carefully pressed together. she lays the handkerchief on her lap, irons it with her hands, takes it by its corners and folds it double. She folds it again and again. While clasping the air with one hand, she takes out the handkerchief with the other.
A second later, she puts the handkerchief on her lap again while she irons it with her hands. She takes it by its corners and folds it double. Then she folds it again and again. While clasping the air with one hand, she shakes out the handkerchief with the other.
Just a second later, the handkerchief lies on her lap while she smoothes it with her hands. She takes it by its corners and folds it double. She folds it again and again. While clasping the air with one hand, she shakes out the handkerchief with the other. She leans over, puts it in the leather briefcase and walks away.


A thought: I still believe a flying goat is a refreshing thought.
