I don't know shit about astrology...so what is a capricorn?
I'm not into astrology, but I do think the characteristics of a person's sun sign are accurate. This site is pretty good for explaining them. The Scorpio one pretty much fits me to a tee.

Yes it would be. I sat and talked to alot of WW2 vets that week over several cases of beer. I gained more wisdom in that week than I had in my early 20's.
That's great. I'll bet they had some great stories just about life overall back in the day

Congats, your big and clumsy.
Just cause you're big doesn't mean you're clumsy.
I was an all american soccer player (2nd team). I was also an all star NAIA Div. 1 All star Short stop, and still hold the Harding University school record for longest run from Scrimmage 82 yards (as a QB)...scramble because the coverage was too good. I'm 260 now, but I can still run and am very agile.

Thomas...named after my grandfather that I never met. In fact I only ever met my grandmother on my father's side...she died on easter morning when I was 7.
I never met any of my Grand fathers and only one of my grand mothers.

I would have forgiven myself. It is not your fault he got into the ting.
But I knew I shouldn't have fought him. He barely made my weight class, and I witnessed his previous fights. I wasn't even trying and I was beating him. Then he got in a lucky upper cut, and I got mad...really mad. Now he's not the same.
That bothers me. I know it's just a competition, but it's just a game. Not even for anything serious like a belt or something. Just a match, and I almost killed a guy. I know it's easy to say it's not my fault, and I know it really isn't, but until it happens to you, you just don't know how it feels.
I remember some guy being killed in the ring when I was younger, and I always thought to myself "it's not his fault, the other guy chose to get into the ring", but now I know better. I wager that any guy that has killed someone in the ring has been significantly changed from it. It does something to you. So much so that I have never fought again.

They did, and it wasn't just American vets there. Men from every country involved in the war were there.
We were watching Paratroopers jump into St Marygleese or something like that. Anyway there was a German Nazi soldier sitting in a wheelchair next to an American Allied soldier. They were both asked "Do you to feel bitter towards each other?" They both responded with "No, because at the time they were just soldiers doing their job. That good guy and bad guy attitude is stuff for the movies and highly innaccurate." That response humbled me.

That's great stuff man. I can't imagine what it must have felt like for those two to sit there and talk to each other
Now I want to go volunteer at a nursing home

I am not clumsy. I was the biggest running back ever in my high schools history at 324lbs in my junior year and 308lbs in my senior year. I also wrestled and I can run a mile in under 8 minutes 7:56 to be exact.
