It's pretty easy to misinterpret things when you're already on the defensive
because people are calling you a liar... Having been called a liar, I
totally understand...

No problem Travis, apology accepted, we all have our off days...
;-)

I was meaning exactly what twaldren says above, nothing more.

I guess I should have stuck a ;-) in there....

Haven't you heard that one before?

It's pretty common where I grew up. 'Buddy had a horseshoe up his butt'
or 'forget the horseshoes, buddy had the whole damn horse up there'....

I looked at that photo and I know exactly how close you were to going,
the look on the guy's face on the bumper says it all....

I have even had to jump on the door sill of one TJ once to stop him from
going turtle down a ravine, but you can be damn sure I had my exit route
planned out.

You had no out if it went over.

You were extremely lucky!

You should have gone out and bought a lottery ticket!
