Before: I used to be a professional hunter (for 22 years in Africa) After: After going through all of this, I will do ANYTHING at ANY COST to turn the odds in my favour.
++++++++++++++++++ I was honestly surprised to see another side of ML, I read the posting twice looking for a hint of "tongue-in-cheek". Many of us enjoy the rush of running on the edge - for some it may be hunting big game, for others it may be hurtling down the side of a mountain on a bicycle. What I find interesting is how the boldness within us is very quickly quenched once things go wrong (we loose control) and slip cross the edge. Most don't get a 2nd chance, those that do always come away with a whole new outlook on life. Thanks Jaco, you helped me put things into perspective. I will learn from your tale and hopefully save the school fees.
