    <gulp> I...I...I'm not worthy! I'm not worthy!

    We need a lot more real stories of real courage like this one. Benjamin is a hero.

    Thx Corvus.

    "The Immortal Class", maybe? My wife read it and said it was pretty good, albeit a little pompous. I
    haven't read it.

    Well, hardly. Here is another (somewhat less complimentary) profile:

    Somehow, a fistfight in the subway between a 300-pound transvestite and a one-legged bicycle
    messenger just says "New York" to me. ;-)

    yes that's it... I wouldn't use the word pompous... but he does tend to get a little bit psuedo
    enviro-politico-philisophical about the whole thing at times.

    The half I was able to stomach sucked big fat sweaty biker ass after 5 days in the same unwashed
    chamois. Maybe the worst book I've ever tried to read. He comes off as a pathetic,
    attention-deprived, self-glorifying bunghole who's trying to impress his college writing class. I'd
    door him. /s *of course, this is just one reviewer's opinion*
