Lol, that was a good day. My wife warned me once to stop bluffing people, I reminded her I don't play poker because I do not bluff. Granted I am older and slower now, but she has seen me take down a punk that tried his luck. The details don't matter but I am sure his bulling days ended quicker than he planned.
I have law enforcement in my family one of them once told me I make them nervous because most people will not look them in their eyes and I do. He explained only three types of people do that, military, leos or criminals. For their own safety if they don't know you and you make direct eye contact, they will always assume you are an ex-con. Now I smile and say hello, it relaxes them.
Generally, I am the gray man, no signs on shirts, no military caps, I could be anyone. If I wore back the blue shirts or military bling it might help my image. But I rarely see strangers, so I don't feel the need. I am just telling you what I learned.
