Affirmative stupidity more like it.
No kings here; the guy doesn't do church on Sunday...
Useful idiots - Mona's been there.
Met a stunning woman there, Court Translator, interlocutor - Márquez mentioned. Frankly, we was just about to jump out of our skins when the NY Times intervened. I broke off telling her that I had lots of court stories, but really only a few. One always comes to mind.
When we were boys, our father brought us to Night Court to see the process and connect with his, er, skill set... the tasking, so to speak. It was really busy; Kings County Courthouse. The perennial cast of characters presenting, a commotion commenced as a line of culprits made entry from the holding pen.
A group of guys stood before the judge, heads all bowed, shuffling from foot to foot. It turned out they were Greeks busted on the waterfront for gambling without compliance. I've got to say Hizzoner was somewhat amused. The Legal Aid attorney pled them guilty and requested bail until disposition.
The judge granted it, releasing the crew on their own recognizance pending reappearance for sentencing. My brother ate it up - I figure he wanted to get involved in the process since that night. Didn't come to me until later... though they looked real sorry, what's the odds they showed up? Funny in the telling, I suppose.

One of those things, ships passing in a dense, dense fog.
She had this kilt on, but it was skirt:
don't mention Ladies from Hell - misconstruel
bounden downtaken; don't depend on them.
Took a keeny looking peer, I did;
harsh, perhaps, not mean cause it's
some clan, not that it matters much.
Another look-up. Were I to have secured
candid smile could have aksed. Pronto.
So long as she don't hike it up, I figure.
