What's happening?!
One morning a man knocked at the outside door of
my house. I came out of my bedroom and unlocked
the inside door. To my surprise the man was
holding a football in one hand and a tablecloth
in the other. He pointed at me with a joystick
and said, I am your new postman and I will
deliver raspberries and strawberries through your
mailbox. I was astonished and while eating my
popcorn I blew into my handkerchief and
whispered, So who is going to deliver the
footballs for the playground? He took out his
laptop and looked into his database and found the
relevant data. The database showed me the picture
of his grandmother with her handbag ready to
deliver the football. I looked out of my window
and saw a blackbird in the playground. The
blackbird twitted at me and changed into a
windmill. How did that happen? I was now
beginning to panic. Everything seemed absurd.
First a postman delivering raspberries and
strawberries, next his grandmother delivering a
football and now the blackbird turning into a
windmill. Whats happening?!!!
