Glad you like it.

We have a saying around this part of the world about a tough guy being someone who 'eats nails for breakfast'. (Although, to be sure, I haven't heard it used much lately.) I'm sure there's some way to work that in to all this, but I haven't come up with it yet. (At least not in a way that ought to trigger laughs instead of groans.) :-)
