or possibly
surviving day to day, but not yet
responsible for anyone or anything of significance.
This is a very different perspective from us
old farts, whom have
responsibilities beyond taking out the garbage and mowing the yard.
Being responsible for others has a way a changing ones perspective... thus a very key difference between boys and men.
Later young
padawon, you too will grow through the post
pubesent years of
angst... and see life through the eyes of your
elders.

Reference the story of the 2 Bulls on the Hilltop)
No, I do not think that Police Officers are immortal or something super-natural....
to the contrary, like I stated before, they are people just like you and me.
BAMF & GP... yes, I still love you both in a very non-homo way
Well, problem is most of the people I hang around are at least a couple years older than I am, although the best ones that stick in my head are indeed, the old farts. Like my uncle, who told a cop, "So go write your fuckin' ticket and let me get on with my day - I make more in a week than you do in a month [true story, there], this ticket isn't hurting me'. Or my brother, who owns 3 companies, has a college degree, a family, and a half a million dollar house, and likes to sit around and joke about how they're the ones who got picked on in school.
Those are only a few examples because I'm not going to type you a book, but you get the idea.
Its alright. Come camping with me this weekend. We can have lots of non-homo love. Just the tip, though.
