Yeah I waited a bit before I went out front because of what you just said and I had no idea what the situation was and it can quickly end up with me on the ground by getting in the middle of a domestic situation.
Yeah. I don't think of myself as a tough guy. Maybe when I was younger and much more scrappy, but its ingrained in me that if someone is going to get a beat down its better that it be me than the woman. Thats probably a pretty dated idea and sexist to boot but thats what I was taught. I am not looking for a beating and if I don't act aggressively just my presence might slow things down (hopefully) and everyone can take a step back.

Still, when a woman tells you to fuck off and you don't, you'll probably gonna get your ass kicked by the both of them :) .

It's a very touchy spot to be in but as soon as punches were thrown it was time to step in. A neighbor came out plus a guy stopped his truck to help so luckily I wasn't alone. To be honest though I wasn't worried in this particular case since I think if she wanted to she would have kicked his ass. She was more focused on her kids than the punches she was taking.

Shouldn't you be posting some Rush lyrics or something?
I'd post 2112, but it's far too tripendicular for this bunch. Their karma just isn't in tune with their cosmic flow.

Ok what would you rather do for a living, turk, or be one of those poor people they send out to report on hurricanes by making them stand in the middle of one and possibly die?

I rather be pelted by hurricane-force winds, random flying debris, rain and lighting, than be pelted by shitty penny batches. One makes you feel alive and like a badass, the other not so much.

I do that shit for free. If they paid me I would even act like I was terrified.

one of the local stations here sent out one of the cute lady reporters to Corpus to report near their sea wall. poor lady stumbled for a few secs during her report. felt bad

i'm sure they get paid extra for doing those type of assignments. you'd think anyways

Thank you for tonight's derailment. I have been entertaining myself with various translations of that poem. I like the version you read (assuming you read it) but this one also struck a cord.

A loss, but who still mourns the breath
of one woman, or laments one wife?
Though my heart never can forget,
how, for one look, she gave up her life.
