You were stupid enough to do that? In your boss's house? Hard to
believe, on both counts. Were you still employed after he retrieved the
weapon?

Someone who's intelligent enough to take it upstairs with him every
night? A LEO?

It's you. Although leaving the weapon unattended on his coffee table,
especially when he's expecting someone, is awfully dumb on his part, too.

We grew up with FBI agents all around our neighborhood. The preferred
downstairs location was atop the refrigerator, or in the piano bench.
We all knew it, yet we had better sense than to pick up someone else's
weapon.
