David, we are kindred spirits. You too, Denis. I'm never looking for a fight. At my age (64), I just don't have it in me anymore. But, alas, I'm told I'm a rather "intimidating" or "imposing" figure, at 6"1" and 260 pounds. That, and having been fairly well trained and well versed in "the sweet science", I won't back away from an aggressor. I'll just tell them, most often very calmly, to "bring it". Almost no one will. All b.s. and bluster. They are used to folks backing down, too afraid to fight, or afraid of a lawsuit, or whatever. And, like others have said, there are seemingly more than ever before. Emboldened, to a point, by something. It's just gotten pretty strange out there, just not sure why.
