Historiens sämsta raggningsreplik

Den förundersökning som polisen inlett redan i december hade lett till att de flesta anmälningar lagts ner på grund av preskription eller brist på bevis. Någonstans förekom dock ett citat som herr Svingel [Klas Östergren] fäst sig vid. En ung kvinna med litterära ambitioner hade visat sig ovillig, varpå klubbvärden [‘kultur-personligheten’ Jean-Claude Arnault] ska ha utbrustit: “Vet du inte vem jag är gift med!?” Som argument i en pågående förförelse är det märkvärdigt …

As always, for you, Jeanette.
Though I speak with the tongues of angels,
If I have not love…
My words would resound with but a tinkling cymbal.
And though I have the gift of prophecy…
And understand all mysteries…

If I have not love…
I am nothing.

Östra kyrkogården i Lund är en plats som alltid betytt mycket för mig.

I dag tände jag ljus för dem alla — min hustru Kristina, min bror Peter, och min vän Bengt.
RIP.
