A rather less vile crime

[fpb]

So I was standing around my mother's flat chatting with her, when I told her - now it can be told - that 27 years ago, when I was in my early teens, I stole one of the books that are now in her bookcase from one of our then-local newsstands.

Name me anyone but a mother who could go into the quivering shakes, 27 years after the fact, at the thought of her son being caught stealing.

Heathen. You'll be in hell with the pagans and the welfare moochers before you know it.
