Not exactly :)
I said 'habit' because I meant it was what they were used to wearing (bit like Patriot Front dressing like Feds all the time) but after I said it I realised there was a pun to be had, so I threw it out there.
Ding ding ding ding.
The water tower sniper might have been that very last shot, the one who actually hit Crooks.
When this all kicked off initially and people mentioned about someone on the water tower, I threw out there that it could have been a clean up shot to make sure Crooks didn't survive. Could well turn out to be the case.
Try buying something as basic as a sewing needle or safety pin.
Once upon a time you could puncture leather with them, not they bend in half trying to push through a thick cotton shirt.
Chinese goods are cheap shit.
I didn't say I didn't experience fear, but from how everyone else seems to describe it what I feel doesn't match up very well, so I think I experience it differently from everyone else.
Most people fear death for example. I'm actually looking forward to going home.
Believe what you want, although it's possible we have our wires crossed here.
If I follow their rules it's because I've learned that not to do so can kill me. That's a logical choice, not a fear based response.
I've been in situations where everything went to hell very quickly and was convinced I was going to die as a result. I didn't crap my pants (which would have been understandable). That's what I mean when I say I don't experience fear in the usual way.
It is going to be difficult for me to interpret a fear of God when I don't really understand what that means.
It did and it didn't. It's easy for me to understand someone's words, not so much their meaning.
For example:
Do you fear gravity? Fire? Of course, we all do.
I think I understand what you mean, but I struggle because I don't actually fear those things. I love fire, but I respect its power.
I also love gravity, because without it I wouldn't have been able to learn how to skydive :) but I have respect for the dangers it can present and take heed to plan accordingly and not dismiss those risks (lack of respect).
I know that other people fear those things, but I don't. So in a way I understand what you mean, but I don't really because it's not how I experience the world.
Not sure that makes any sense, ah well :)
I totally get that, and we are all on a journey Fren, and they are all different :)
I have stood in a hallowed presence and shamed myself so badly it has required a vow of 10 years now to show penance. It was a stupid act of hubris, which is why I now try so very hard to be humble.
I may never step back into that presence again, and that's ok, but if I do it I will be as a different person.
I have been so blessed in my life, I may have also mentioned in other posts that I might have had the hardest working guardian angel in the world when I was younger - but I count my blessings now, and they are many.
I have one job, and I intend to work at it until my last breath. The net effect to me is immaterial to be honest, as long as I fulfil my vows and never give up (hard as that can be sometimes).
Well, since i hear most Democrats hate her guts, this should be interesting.
