Quotes

Malcolm Xmas: Well, what happened is, I uh, I hurt my thumb. Uh, just like, I was under the carriage, just working on the motor and so I went to the bathroom, cos' it was bleeding a little bit, just to, you know, wash the blood off and wrap it up a little bit, and then when I came back to work, they'd replaced me. So you know I had no job, so what was I supposed to do?
