That is not a tangent by any stretch! Infact, you just hit on one of those 'buttons' of mine. Infact, on but two occations I can remember being truely angry at anyone. The first was with a girl who, not knowing anything about Jean aside from the fact I liked her, started bad-mouthing her. You have no IDEA how mad that got me (my temper's rising just thinking about it, nearly 5 years after the fact). The second more recent time was when a guy who honestly doesn't know any better was making sexual comments about several girls I care for, and I very nearly bit his 'effing head off. I was most DEFINATELY snapping at him, much as I was trying to reign in my temper. You just don't... GO there, y'know?
Both sides of my family -- Italian and German -- have harsh tempers, and on occation I've seen it from both my parents, and most especially from mom Mom's dad and my Dad's mom. My mom's brother put a whole in his bedroom wall once, and my brother, Gene (quiet little Gene) has put two or three wholes in different walls. I think Tim punched through a door once, too. Josh really has a temper, though it's calmed down a bit as he grew up.
LOL And quite alright, Ms. Melissa. You know it's always a pleasure to see you around, in any case. ^__^ Have a good evening.

Ooh. I remember that. Maybe I have seen you mad, in that case...I had forgotten about that incident with Miss Nangie.
