The 60-year old you're referring to wasn't somebody's innocent grandpa. It's obvious, however, that you see things one way and I see them another so I'll stop now. I will say, however, that I think way too much emphasis is being placed on Furillo's age. He's being treated as though living for six decades automatically makes one vulnerable, feeble and perhaps somewhat dotty. He was using his pen as a weapon so he should not have been surprised when it came back and bit him in the arse, so to speak.
