    The afternoon was hot, a bit moist and sticky too. Yurick and Yann were enjoying the freshness of Dory’s patio.
    Cold lemon drink in cocktail glasses, the radio playing some sun related song.
    Dan was out playing golf with friends and would be here for dinner.
    Dory, dozing on her rocking chair had told Yurick and Yann that they could use their computers, they had 2 of them, so Yurick could take Dory’s and Yann could take Dan’s. Yurick was busy checking his mails and answering all those who had submitted some article for the next issue of their e-zine, and Yann wanted some distraction. He was just looking at some pictures on Gurgle, some movies on Yootune. Some of them were cracking him up, and he had difficulties keeping his :-| face serious.
    At the same time he was browsing through Dan’s pictures folders. Some of them were really amazing. Pictures of Dory on the field, with her pith helmet and her brushes, her shovels or even her pick. She was very funny looking when she was finding something seemingly out of nowhere, having dug all day long with no result and then finally some treasure! Often, Yann thought, it was only some fragment of a vase or some broken tool, but she always had this awe-inspired gaze ;))

    What is the name of this singer again?, asked Yurick.
    You ask me?

    The grin on Yurick’s face was all that Yann was waiting for. Yann had no memory of names of singers or actors. Their face, once he had seen it were recorded in his mind, but their name was like a summer breeze, refreshing, but soon forgotten. He knew that Yurick was more asking that to himself.

    Dunno me luv. You can ask the mummy in the living room if you want…
    Hahaha, graowl

    Hehehe. Funny that, thought Yann. Coming back to the computer screen, his eyes fall on a strange folder name.
    Patate? What’s that!?
    Double-click.
    Just a few files. Videos mainly. The names weren’t very evocative…
    Yann picked one and waited for the movie to begin.
    It was kind of black and white movie… the grain was gross and old fashioned. There was no audio.
    Yann had an old memory of a similar movie seen on the comodor computer of his cousin’s parents… his cousin had told him about some weird movie he had found in a floppy disk of his father…
    So, there was a man, maybe in his 60’s, he was wearing a gray bathing suit and was a bit hairy. Drinking some kind of grey cocktail.
    A girl came in… with an amazing leopard baby-doll!!! from what Yann could see, she was blond and fleshy. Oh! and she had some friends. All of them with a leo-part on them :-?

    Ahem! Yurick? Wanna see what I found?
    Hmmm
    I’m sure you’ll find some interest :)) hahaha! Oh my Flove! She’s really doing it!?
    =))

    Seeing his friend hilarious picked the curiosity of Yurick and he eventually came to see. The look on his face when he saw what was happening was too much for Yann who burst into laughter. That was enough to wake Dory who almost fell off her rocked chair.

    What is that? Where did you find that… thing? Dory looked offended, but soon she was blushing.
    Oh! no… don’t look at that. It was a youthful mistake…
