It was like a red film slowly descended over my eyes.

Iiiinteresting. My dad was like that. He used to call it a 'Shit Fit'. He never laid a hand on me or any of my siblings or my mom. He was a stand up guy from the Greatest Generation and I miss him a lot.

But he was not a man to be trifled with. I'd seen it a couple of times. Fortunately, I didn't inherit that trait. I tend to get really focused and can decide an appropriate course of action quickly. But, I'm a defensive tackle size guy, so I don't get hassled. Much.

Yeah, I had not experienced it before, and I have not experienced it since. It actually scared me, because I completely blacked out until it was over .... and the other people told me that if they had not intervened, I would have pitched him over the 3-story-high railing. In that case, I'd be -- right now -- doing time for murder.

I went totally feral. It is interesting to know that I am capable of that, but also scary.
