      Vi o cabelo dele no posto de gasolina. Aí ele virou e... bem, você sabe qual é a aparência dele. Aí ele riu. Eu nunca contei, né? Ele pensou que eu fosse uma senhora. Foi uma primeira impressão bem correta, na verdade.
      I saw his hair at the gas station. Then he turned around and... well, you know what he looks like. Then he laughed. I never told him, did I? He thought I was an old lady. It was a pretty accurate first impression, actually.
