Meredith and I were coming back from Salt Lake City today. In the waiting area in the airport was a teenage boy, probably about 16, lying on the floor talking on his cell phone. I isuccessfully gnored almost his his entire conversation, but was unable to avoid hearing this snippet:
"Yeah, and I stole a bunch of my grandmother's silverware, too. Yeah, it's awesome. It's really nice silver, too -- she's had it forever. Yeah, I got like five forks and spoons. I'm gonna melt it down to make into bracelets or something. Want one?"
Perhaps Singapore has the right idea with public floggings after all.
