Never realized that the first sentence was so long

Read Moby dick it has sentences as long as half a page with 5-8 commas, 3-4 semi colons, and few real colons.

A roman senator is running late to an important senate meeting. He arrives 15 minutes late and enters to see each seat filled, with the exception of his own, and Cicero standing in the middle of the room giving a speech.

He manages to stealthily make his way to his seat without causing too much of a commotion and leans over to the senator next to him, asking in a hushed tone, "Hey, what's Cicero talking about?"

The other senator simply shrugs and whispers back, "I don't know, he hasn't gotten to the verb yet"
