I have a bum knee and can no longer run away from trouble. Years of living in this city, Ive had my share of run-ins with all kinds of nuts and characters. I'm not a violent guy and most confrontations were avoided either by ignoring them or giving a silent glare (laughing at them helps too but only if you're in a car, sometimes it seems to make them more angry). Although, one time I did stiff arm a hobo in the face when he tried to grab me. I wish a had a more imposing presence other than a pot belly. I only do this when I'm walking with Amie and holding her hand. I must use my left hand to hold her. This allows my right hand (my dominant hand) to be free and if we're walking and run into trouble, I can use my right hand and deck 'em.
This is the way I think. Maybe I'm the nut? I sure hope that Amie thinks I'm romantic.

awww. sweet post. i'm sure you'll do whatever it takes to protect amie. your killer instincts will take over.
i wanna go to vegas! i checked my schedule. i'm on call on the 16th, which means i work until the morning of the 17th :-(. i do have the rest of saturday and sunday off but i'm afraid that's not much time. thank you for the offer though... what are you going to be doing in vegas? how long are you going to be there for?
Grin. I think that is romantic, after all, you are thinking of protecting her aren't you?
I agree, doctors are infamous for never following their own advice. I know so many respiratory and cardiology doctors who chain smoke then go to clinic and advice pts against it.
ps you are right, the boots are suede :)
