On the run

Sometimes it's too easy to be a blogger. Today on STUFF:

Ex-sports star coy on coming home: One of two former sports stars caught up in a major drug bust says he has no immediate plans to return to New Zealand and talk to the police. [...] The second celebrity [is] also believed to be out of the country.


I'm really feeling for our boys* on the lam, here. Who would come on in to that sort of welcoming committee? I just hope that wherever they are, they know that they're always in our thoughts, prayers, and non-work-related emails, and that they never forget that there are plenty of very reasonable nations in the world - of quite acceptable quality - who don't have extradition treaties with New Zealand.

Note: Term 'boys' used here not with any calumnious intention but in an honourarily-fraternal sense and for the sake of brevity and clarity; our 'second' recalcitrant comrade could of course be of either sex.
