Pijin English (was Re: Drawing, Painting, Figure)

[Olek]

Listen karlcz, you Blake 'em lines as you damn please, but don't
jive me with no sticks and bonds. And fella, let's hear no more
'bout no novella -- I'll not let you Craig me through this mock!
Other than that, nice cooin'.

Olek

P.S. Tell the little singypoor girl to send me a cooin' pijin,
coz the last one croaked.
