It has not been a fun couple of days at the Von Schtupp household, that much I can tell you.
A very dear friend managed, by dint of being a wonderful, sweet, trusting and hoenst soul, to get himself into unbelievably deep doo-doo with the Israeli equivalent of that which those over the pond refer to as "New York's finest". Finest my gargantuan ass. Bunch of petty tinpot hitlers, only about a half degree removed from the criminals they claim to chase (oh yeah? where's my car that was stolen 12 years ago, huh? Manyakim.) and drunk on the possibilities of abuse of power, and actualities of occurrence.
Be very careful not to get yourself involved in any entanglement with the law, people -- that's all I'm saying.
My friend is a genuinely good person, someone who gives back to the community in many ways -- freely, willingly, happily and of course, voluntarily. (Ke'ilu, duh.) He is a family man, and is devoted to his wife and children, and has managed to eke out a living for himself here, despite being disadvantaged by linguistics and finance -- or rather, lack thereof. THe worst thing you can say of him is that he is a smidge naive -- and since when was that a crime, or a free invitation to abuse and take advantage of a person?
Hmmm?
Anyway. He's out now. He's fine. I just spoke to him and now I'm calm and smiley again.
Thank you for bearing with the bitey-ness -- normal service has now been resumed.
