дело Рейзера

Вышло первое интервью со времени его ареста. Там множество перлов и новых деталей, но самый хит, который меня просто добил -- это когда автор цитирует слова Шона Стуржеона (друга детства и кредитора Рейзера, наркомана, бисексуала, BDSM-щика, любовника исчезнувшей жены, убившего, с его собственных слов, 8 человек):

The last time he (Стуржеон) called Nina was the Friday before she disappeared. He wanted to find a good time to drop off some money. He hadn't seen her for four months — as part of the court-approved divorce agreement, Sturgeon was barred from visiting the kids, who stayed mostly with Nina. The enforced separation strained their relationship, until they finally broke up. Still, Sturgeon wanted to help her financially. Reiser was often late with child-support payments, and Nina didn't have a full-time job. "I was her ‚maid of honor' when she married Hans; I wasn't going to let her down," Sturgeon says, explaining that he dressed up as a woman for the wedding and stood beside Nina for the service.

‚maid of honor' -- это "дружка" на свадьбе.

Почему-то, в сочетании с остальным текстом статьи, после этого я смеялся, плакал и катался под столом. ;-)))
