Entry 10: Overheard in Altaiskoye

So, before the first day of classes, I had to go down to the police station to get registered (everyone, including Russians, has to get registered in every city they stay in for more than three days, for the purposes of national security, apparently). As I was waiting for my registration to come through (Natalya Mikhailovna said it would be no problem, as the father of one of our students worked there), I heard someone say very distinctly in a loud voice coming from one of the officer's rooms, "F*** your mother!" Further context and provoking factors are still yet to be determined.
