 Pontes 99 - Literature and the Industry of Entertainment

Bees went wild that summer. The Pontes people tried to find salvation under the sea. And so, a little bit of wine, a little bit of sun, and the trip back to Sarajevo/Bitola via Zagreb made stomachs dizzy. A friend of ours, Ivan (sitting behind Boća who was driving the car) in a broken voice announces:
"You people, don't worry, but I'm going to throw up now."
And Boća replies:
"No problem, just tell me when to lift my collar."
