Hoist on his own... well, whatever.

personally i've always relied on being big and scarey.
Che, that's so sweet of you to say that. Big? Yes. But scarey? Not to anyone who knows you.
OTOH, I'd feel very safe walking anywhere with you... maybe that height does have some serious advantages.

Yes. It's beautiful writing, and it's so good that you have told us this story. As Mark Graham said, it helps is to remember what is important.

No I don't, Shep. I reject infanticide using precisely the same criteria that I use to show that abortion is morally permissible.

Actually, Shep, I explicitly reject infanticide in my argument.

My beloved eldest daughter is nine. Just thinking about this mother's grief, and the young life gone, has me weeping over my keyboard.

Thank you, Shep.

I'll take that one, Shep. You see, I am infertile, and we have our lovely children through ART (assisted reproductive technology).
Let me endorse what Jackie said, hugely.
And back in the days when I was weeping because my arms were empty, it never, ever occurred to me that I should be forcing other women to go through pregnancy just so that I could have a baby to cuddle. Forced pregnancy is no happier a situation than infertility.

In conclusion, having a 4WD is a little like having a towbar. It's quite useful, but you might be rather surprised what you can do without one. Admittedly, towbars don't do a great deal for street cred.
I wanted to get a towball on my Suzuki Swift, but my partner wasn't keen. Too try-hard, he thought.

What Danielle said, Shep, but also, I'm preparing an answer which I will put on my own blog, maybe today, maybe tomorrow. I don't particularly wish to engage with the medieval drum banger here.
