Jeff, you've been shot twice and knifed once? The psychologists would say you must be walking like a victim. <g>

I've been shot at a few times. (if somebody shoots at you 3 times and misses, is that 3 times or one time?) I claim my continued existence as a testament to the poor marksmanship skills and inaccurate rifles issued to people in Eastern Europe during the sixties. It is also possible that the shooter wasn't trying to hit me, though I didn't stop to ask. <g> I was also once shot at from a boat in the Elbe River. I am no longer one of those people who find standing on a dock a relaxing activity. But that shot didn't even come close. And he shot at several other people, too, so it wasn't personal.

BTW, I'm a hard target to miss, so I no longer irritate armed folks. I can't get lousy shots forever.
