You seem to do that very well without my help or antagonism.

No, we wouldn't want to change the "training" that it took for you
act "otherwise" from the exceptionally intense, competitive, and
burning to win person that you "really" are.

For shame that you "really" were an easy going, mildly competitive
person who likes to win, but is comfortable losing. Never that !

Well, Mr. Mc, whether drunk or sober, I have not had a physical
altercation with anyone since the 1970s, and certainly have no desire
to change that.

However, even if I was the competitive type, I wouldn't try to beat you
out of the title for "most routinely punched in the face by multiple
people."

But, "if" our path's cross, let it be known that I am certainly not going
to provoke a fight with a school teacher, with me looking like David
Crosby's double, cause I know how the game works. See, I have a
background in law, not quite yet a mouthpiece, but I am a
California Certified Paralegal/Legal Assistant, and I'm not going to
jail for assault and battery over an internet squabble. I don't care
whose mommy got boinked by whom, or suggested same. If I hit a
school teacher looking like I do, (a cross between a Hells Angel and
David Crosby), and right or wrong, I'm goin' to jail!!

Off to a new subject.

Just to prove that I have been kinda antagonistic and an asshole, I'm
gonna turn the other cheek, and also surprise you all and take the last
couple weeks worth of posts, and reply with what I think are Roger
Daltrey's strong points.

Roger's Strong Point No. 1 :

I've read that some think Roger does not do bitterness and irony well.

Well, he sings the shit, better than ANYONE could, out of "Dreaming
