JohnH,
I still can't figure out why Harry thinks it takes guts to meet him for
lunch. That one just went right over my head. I don't pretend to be a
"horse" or a tough guy, but I can't think of many times I ever felt I was in
danger of being physically hurt, and I don't carry or own a gun. I think
it is both your mental outlook and your physical strength that determine if
someone is going to harass you. I don't believe Harry would threaten me
physically.

Maybe he thought you'd be 'mentally' threatened. But the past twenty-four hours has definitely laid
that idea to rest. I have no idea either. From my personal observation, there is nothing about Harry
that one would find 'physically' threatening, unless he was carrying all his guns.

I also can't understand why he won't engage me in a discussion of bad behavior. I think Wayne's New
Year's resolution idea was a pretty good one.

Maybe Chuck will join in a push for good behavior.
