SomeWhat

The film Director Roman Polanski was arrested, in Switzerland, last saturday, thirty years after he escaped from USA when he was going to enter in prison.

All the european intellectual sector is blocked by this news, but I wonder if his reaction will be the same if the criminal is not a famous person.

This reaction, in my opinion is hypocrit and, despite that I can admit the talent of this film director, however it is true that he committed a legal fault and, as other people because the law is the same for everybody, he ought to pay and to bear the consecuences of his behaviour.

For thursdays we reserve the Idioms. Those expressions with a fixed meaning.

The first of them is: “Set in Stone”. We can use it when we are talking about something hard to move, but no a chair a table or a car. It’s referred to norms, law, rules, conventions, mother’s orders and stuff like this.

A rule is set in stone when you can’t break it.
