-"You know Her friend, P, Imaginary sidekick?"
-"Yeah?"
-"Well, P has this friend G, who is an actor or something. Anyway, this G was in a movie, and the director, who was only 27, just had a heart attack and died."
-"Really?"
-"Apparently he was making a bengali adaptation of La vita รจ bella."
- [Snigger]
-"Yeah, I know! And I said to her, when She told me, I said, 'you know, this might seem a bit excessive to you in view of the fact that Netaji only gets one minute and Gandhiji only gets two, but for this brilliant young director, I think we should have eight hours of silence tonight!"
- [Imaginary sidekick laughs till he cries] "My, Aquilus, that's the funniest thing I ever heard!"
-"Isn't it?"
-"Absolutely!"
-"But She didn't think it was funny at all!"
-"No! Unbelievable!"
-"And then, she actually said that there was no way I could think of a coherent way to put it on my blog! Can you believe that, Imaginary sidekick?"
-"The gall!"
-"I know! Well, I do find myself quite in charity with you today, Imaginary sidekick. But hark! What was that?"
- "Holy Scatological Wisecrack, Aquilus! Professor Pokaface is trying to enslave the citizens of Nosensahumaville again!"
-"Come, Imaginary sidekick! We must fly there at once! With the power of humor on our side, we WILL defeat Professor Pokaface."
