Subject: "Bully"????Re: stroke recognition
I do not know where they get this "bully " shit - I stay to myself until
provoked or attacked. Hardly a bully, but always a bad one to screw
with.

Mouth talks about me being an "8th grade bully". Actaully, I would have
made  good one since I was the same size in 8th grade as I am now, and
was the middle linebacker on the football team ( moving back and back as
I got older and everyone else got bigger until it was safety), and had
been on the wrestling team from the 6th grade . The kids in my grade did
not fool with me, but the older kids always hated me and had to screw
with me, so I always ended up in fights. The key for a younger kid
dealing with the older, bigger guys was to be as viciously nasty as
possible and make the price of fooling with me a sure trip to the school
nurse, and that has not changed in all this time - it still works best. 
Hardly a bully, just defending myself in the same situation - fighting
the resentment of the "older kids" who think they should be playing my
position, but just can't cut it.
