"Every so often, some cretin threatens me on X, formerly known as Twitter. These soyboy types tend to lead by saying I appear weak and fragile. I doubt I would lose a physical fight, certainly against these degenerate specimens, even though it has been many years since I actually fought. I may be aging, but I am reasonably strong, very fit, and have extremely fast reflexes, and my sociopathic and pedal-to-the-metal tendencies would likely come to the fore in a do-or-die contest. Nonetheless, rather than arguing the point, my usual response, if I deign to make one, is to quote the old aphorism, “God created man, and Sam Colt made men equal.” How Colt accomplished that is the topic of Jim Rasenberger’s excellent biography. . . ."
