Apologia

Poor Ming hasn't posted in two days due to his selflessly aiding the authorities in their enquiries. It would appear a tiny misunderstanding arose as Ming reached into his pocket to retrieve a hanky while riding a crowded subway car. The pocket in question turned out to contain a wallet much to Ming's delight.
After a short sprint through several subway cars the wallet's original owner and a meddling plainclothesman were able to alert Ming to the potential for misunderstanding.
Everything should then have been copacetic, but just like the FDA, there are those who are punctilious and unreasonable about details.
At least three hots and a cot are more than anyone receives when going up against the FDA.
