= Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman chapter O Americano, Outra Vez!
{c}
In this chapter <Richard Feynman> talks about his experiences in <Brazil>.
"O Americano, Outra Vez!" means "The American, once again!" in <Portuguese (language)>, which is what one of the samba school boss exclaimed when Feynman was not playing well his instrument, the frigideira, during a rehearsal.
Feynman really enjoyed Brazil's (and notably <Rio>'s) stereotypical "take it easy and enjoy life" attitude.
