Instead I yelled as loud as I could to see if that would give me back the hour I had inexplicably wasted in traffic on I-91. It did help a little.

I was in a fist "fight" once, when I threw a punch at a Beastie Boys concert. Of course, I was 25 at the time. And my target was at least eight inches taller than me. A meathead jock. He hit me with an elbow to the ribs.<br /><br />I hope my Jeff helps redeem a history of lousy Jeffs for you. I've traditionally had problems with Dannys and Daves.Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04608563619794630680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-881640196848181202.post-32918985043210833622009-11-22T11:20:01.798-08:002009-11-22T11:20:01.798-08:00You've heard my long and sordid history of pug...You've heard my long and sordid history of pugilistic entanglements, and as such I won't rehash my own 1-1-2 record.

Since then I've considered seriously getting into 9 3/8 more, but even in my most successful fantasies am plagued by the fear of landing a too-solid punch, my opponent accidentally tripping skullplant into a curb, a rare form of a rare disease exploding into aggressive symptoms of accelerated liver atrophy at the tender slap of my left hand, et cetera, and this person dying, leaving me responsible and guilty of aggravated assault big time, manslaughter, et cetera. <br /><br />Best to just walk away.Zachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00932766584239103059noreply@blogger.com
