Things are seldom…

… what they seem, sings Buttercup in Pinafore.

And ain’t it the truth. He’s a resident assistant in a Hofstra University dorm; she seems a nice Jewish girl. But he assists students in buying drugs, and she’s a gangster’s moll.

    Moll. My Grandma would have said "she’s a bad egg". The GanGsTA boyfriend…"a wiseguy". Not in the eye-talian sense. More like a punk.

    Nana was truly old school. Died at 96.

    Hey, should I ditch those ""quote"" marks?

    As an assistant public defender who handles a violation calender four or five days a week, I can tell you that many young people have no idea how much trouble they can get into. I am 99.9% certain that the people who were arrested were shocked, absolutely shocked that they were charged and even more shocked that they were charged with serious felonies.

    Little Buttercup’s just quoting Pope, no?
