I am lying here. I don't know where. I don't care. It's not important to me. I could work it out if I wanted to, but why bother. I am very old. I have forgotten how old. It's not important to me. I could work it out if I wanted to, but it wouldn't help me much. How old am I? Two. Ha,ha! It's a joke! Get it! Two old. No! It's the Alzheimer; you know what they say: first Hildesheimer, then Mannheimer and then Alzheimer. Yes, an advanced case of Alzheimer; I've probably got Parkinson and Psittacosis as well.
