51. Your recollection of the dimensions shows how tough this was. Damn.
My gender often pisses me off. But, I know that the vast majority of us guys would have met that a**hole directly on the chin. As a lawyer, I would love to go after these weirdos. As a father. As a son, of a woman beaten in the '50s before my eyes. Bless you, and hang in there. They won't win.
