Mike,you certainly are a most interesting fellow.

In the USA you'd already be in jail,or you would've had a tragic car accident.

Looking forward to your next chapter 😊

Intelligent people always wind up where they don't expect to be. Call it fate,or accidentally locking horns with an enemy who has unexpected resources. Bright folks that fight hyenas often loose more than they wish. What you lose,can make you week,or it can fill you with resolve.
