ROFL
Let me assure you, you would not know. I have students coming back to see me, because they think they were my favorite student, and they actually drove me nuts. It's my job to only let students see what they need to see, which is why I have the exceptional results with my students that I have. Everyone at my school would tell you how sweet and caring I am, and how I never get angry :-) But then I grant you, I'm exceptional in many ways, and hiding my true feelings when I want to is just one of those ways. It's a skill. I don't choose to exercise it here. No reason to.

Well thanks Steve, I needed a little help from my friends-lol. I was in deep water and the rip tide was running strong against me. I look up and can see way far inland, above a 100 foot cliff!, and knowing I am in very deep water patrolled by big sharks. If I am by myself it is scary as shit.

Last time that happened in Santa Cruz, I had a buddy with me who told me: "don't panic-lol". Dale Hudson. I wasn't thinking about panicking, but I saw it as a good reminder-lol.

I didn't panic and we swam for shore and soon the wonderful waves were breaking over my head and pushing me into shore. I think I can feel sand under my feet now.
