| "The
very last words young Fergal McNally heard in his life were: 'Don't lean
out of the window!' The very last sounds were probably the air whistling
past his sticky-out ears as he fell the fourteen stories, the honk of traffic
horns below (getting nearer and nearer, of course), and -- possibly --
the SP of the
SPLAT! he himself made as he hit the pavement."
So begins the tale of Fergal McNally. What had brought Fergal to
that window involves his sisters, his one legged father, and, of course,
the Tap 'n Type contest. Don't worry too much about Fergal.
Things are not always as they seem. |
