By the way, I have a long-time friend who, no matter how tough you think you are, is tougher -- an ex Con (who has redeemed himself) who Did Time, a guy who has pulled a gun on bad-boy bikers gangs and WON, a guy who has braved some of the toughest seas you could know in a little tiny boat (think "The Perfect Storm"), a guy who went eyeball-to-eyeball with the crew of a Soviet mega-trawler in the high seas and eye-witnesses I know, who would never have put themselves in such a dangerous predicament, saw him come away with a smile on his face and some excellent vodka in exchange for American "luxuries" like razors and bourbon --
-- if this guy saw you aiming a .22 at his beloved cat (like many fisherman, he always had a cat on the boat with him) or any other housecat ... well, I hate to think what would happen to you. Suffice it to say you'd be lucky if you were physically able to shoot at cats after that. Some of THE most manly, gnarly, tough dudes I know, dudes who would scare the crap out of you with one level look -- and I know a few -- have real soft spots for cats and real hard-ons for jerks like you.
