Here’s a book I could have written:
Speaking of wasted time, I learned my friend Jeremy Frye has been sentenced to four years in prison. I actually expected he’d get at least ten years, so I guess that’s a small blessing. The consequences of this fucked up mess are a sad thing to behold. One man is dead and the other is facing a bleak future. Certainly Jeremy can expect to be deported when he completes his sentence and with a criminal record I doubt he’ll find work back home or anywhere else teaching. Jeremy is a smart man who is paying a terrible price for his ill-fated attempt to be chivalrous. It’s all such a waste.
