Joe Mantegna suddenly catblock / why I like Rossi




There is something about Rossi that is always sweet and hilarious. Gavin de Becker said that men are worried that women would laugh at them, while women are worried that men would kill them (for laughing/rejecting them). Well Rossi had always struck me as the kind of men who wouldn't be afraid or angry at a woman who laughs at him, even if it was in bed. Is this weird? The fact that he stayed friends with his first wife have me reading Rossi less as a man who have failed three marriages, and more as a man who have moved pass three failed marriages (or mistaken match-ups) - his id is not dependent on any conduct of 'his woman'.

Gavin de Becker, a bodyguard and security expert, is the author of The Gift of Fear, an invaluable work on how to trust one's intuition and avoid or escape dangerous situations; he's written two follow-ups, The Gift of Fear, dealing with the protection of children (this one has some useful information regarding the autistic spectrum, including safety hints for the intuition-deficient) and Fear Less, dealing with security in a post-9/11 atmosphere. (The latter two titles, since they contain a lot of repeated material, can be regarded as specialized editions of The Gift of Fear.)
