Wow, sc. That was a real punch in the face, LOL. You really give no quarter--nor, why should you? IMO, you are BetterMost gold medal champion hands down.

Hmm ... I guess that's a compliment? I hope so, anyway. Certainly no offense intended, x-man! :)

Oh very DEFINITELY a compliment. I did not take offence at all--I am not that ego-involved with my postings. I did think you were misreading me slightly, but no matter. I got your message exactly, including the subtexts, for both parts. The "punch" was a sports metaphor concluding with the "gold medal champion." You are my favourite person to debate here. You go straight for the problematic points and brush past extraneous issues, personal anecdotes, etc. Please don't hold back your punches on my account.
As for me, I am still learning who I can talk to without kid gloves. You seem to be such a person; I hope you will regard me as the same--as you seem to be doing now. BTW, I did appreciate what you said about my analysis of Ennis' motivation in my "courage" posting several pages back at this site.

I was nineteen when I made my first jump...I felt terrified...almost paniced by the thought of jumping. While standing on cliff, I hesitated....but I made the jump. Today I can think both see; the stupid idea of jumping, and the thought of letting go of life. (as it represent for me)
Today I found this video...and I must say, seeing those to guys jumping at 3.19...made my heart beat a bite extra.

Sophia, that song was a pretty big here for Macklemore here in the US. News stories about it becomming the first gay marriage song to hit the Top 20 were correct, it did get that high, and quite a few people thought it would hit the Top 10.
It just missed, spending three weeks stuck at #11 on the chart, and then it fell back down. Not bad!
