While my great-grandfather was put to use in Central America, my grandfather was hired to put out oil well fires. It just runs in the family. ---

Let’s just say I’m the official hoseman when our volunteer fire station can’t get near a hydrant. And yes, it’s hereditary, I got it from my grandpa who defended the shores of Normandy on D-Day by wiping out throngs of allied infantry men with short controlled bursts. . . by the time he had to rest, those soilders could’nt tell if he was _coming_ or going \. (of course, my grandpa is nowhere near being german, which, of course, makes that story even more miraculous.) ---

To answer Eidolon’s original question without excessive boating/overcompensation, every once in a while I’ll get a pretty amazing velocity. Often, I’ll hold my hand about an inch away to block anything that might wind up behind/above me. I’d say my record is about 4 feet. ---

I knew Gene Roddenberry. When he became aware of my prowess, he found a way to work it into his series. He just changed “wad speed” into “warp speed” so as to not offend any delicate sensibilities. ---

Originally posted by **Incubus** : > [@](#): > > To answer Eidolon’s original question without excessive boating Something about the typo “excessive boating” cracks me the hell up - I’m not sure whether the thread topic has anything to do with it. It’s a pretty funny thought just by itself, I think. 😛 ---

So, basically, men cannot answer a question about their sexual capacity/capability/prowess without bragging their asses off. Thanks for the insight into the male psyche…and quite a few giggles. ---
