It is the price he has to pay for being intelligent but not, as yet, quite intelligent enough.

    Dog   Atheist   Fear

It was all idleness, and whenever I asked someone a question, no matter how simple, no matter how well the person spoke English, there was always a long pause before I got a reply, and I found these Pacific pauses maddening. And there was giggling but no humor - no wit. It was just foolery.
