Black tie Quote by Gerard K. O'Neill

“At that moment a short, broad figure emerged from the house, looking absurdly like a giant panda dressed in a butler's black suit with a white shirt and black tie. Its round panda face had a spotlight for a nose, two eye lenses, large ears, and a speaker for a mouth.” quote by Gerard K. O'Neill — Download Open image
