I am impressed that you managed to make preventing someone from being strangled into a selfish act.
Were you there?
You weren't.
As a matter of fact I never saw Sherry again which isn't surprising since what she underwent was a lot more traumatic than what this blind woman underwent.
It was simply an observation that I never received a thank you. I have no feeling about that one way or the other. I was simply echoing Max Raker's idea that an award was strange.
I was taking exception to your use of the word "fail" in the post above.
Do you think the fireman that went into the World Trader Center and died and didn't save anyone "failed"?
How about a little boy who tries to get in between his Mommy and his Daddy when Daddy is trying to beat the hell out of Mommy. The little boy fails to stop Daddy. Is he a failure still?
I knew the crazy woman beating up on Sherry could turn on me. Am I failure because it took 2 full grown men in their prime to pull the crazy black lady off Sherry?
