Wonderful! Of course, they shouldn't have been arrested in the first place, but at least they'll be home for Easter.

Yes, very glad those sailors are going home. I can't even imagine how frightened they must have been.

Yesterday, our car battery died and AAA sent out a mechanic to replace it for us. He was a very handsome young man with a charming accent, and his nametag read Rashim. I asked him where he was from, and he sort of braced himself and said grimly, "Iran."

He actually seemed to expect me to turn on him just for being Iranian... and there are a lot of people around here, I'm afraid, who would. That's so sad.

Anyway, I assured Rashim that I knew he didn't personally abduct those British sailors, and he gave a little laugh of relief.

Sheesh. The so-called leaders in this world sure do generate a lot of misery for the rest of us, don't they?
