[QUOTEGood post, Murdoch. But the last post reminds me of a comment by Horace Kephart. He, I think, had invited someone along to watch one of those long range single shot rifle competitions popular before WWI. He thought his friend would be impressed. Instead he said, "If it weren't for the smoke and the noise, this would be quite the lady's game." Kephart was a little let down but was forced to agree that it was nothing at all like hunting.
Does the original poster believe there is any relationship between being a bouncer and a warrior? Or am I missing something entirely?

It is hard to balance a Liverpool in the early 1960s, and the USA of today, or even a few years ago. Being a warrior (Vague term) is a mind set, the mind set of an individual.
The football crowd, with beer in belly were terrible then, more so now!
They came out to fight, and we obliged, so forget the movie notions of two big men dragging some one out of a Club/Pub. Our altercations took place in the door, or in Mathew St. (pronounced Matt-you)
Little old me at 5'9" and 190 did not fit that mold in any way shape or form.
So in trying to explain this concept, I seemed to have left my self open to ridicule, not to worry.
Any posts that are made, by any one, can be attacked, but if one part of an honest statement can be used to pass on a means to help win a common or garden fight, that can not be so bad, yes?
Back in 1995 I was a Guest Speaker of The Georgia Assoc; of Law Enforcement Firearms Instructors, just prior to the Olympics, 266 of Georgia's finest were in attendance. My certificate (Plaque) of appreciation sits on the wall in front of me now.
My standing ovation came from having met the Beatles on many occasions more than anything else! But my warnings in dealing with liquored up Brits did not fall on deaf ears, not from reading it in a book, the Liverpool Kiss (Head Butt) could be avoided.
I sent an email to Murdock, (Scottish?) did your spam blocker block same?
