coolhandluke,
My husband is a former Marine drill instructor. Sometimes he goes to tell me an event that happened at work and out comes what I call his 'command voice' now add his very muscular build, now that is intimidating to some! I can envision wimpy guys peeing their pants, and women fainting when he does that. hee hee! I just put my hand up and lower it, he looks at me in the eye and I say 'can we use the 'in the car voice'? When we are in the truck, it reverberates off the glass... ouch! ha ha! He is a sweatie, wouldn't hurt a fly! (actually he can catch them with his bare hands)! Says he learned that in 3rd week of boot camp! He says he has to 'downplay' his strength so he won't scare the subs (sub contractors) and they might run away!
Just thought I would tell this little tale for a chuckle!
