Me huele que en esta Feria de las Piñatas, esto afinca el camino hacia nuevos ascensos para estos dos colombianitos falsetos que dirigen el circo aqui en Newsport. Ya veremos luego del IPO. Como dice mi abuela, amanecera y veremos. Nada en contra de las damas, que aprovechen mientras se pueda. Siempre se necesitan complices.
