If someone faces confrontation, and they act to send a signal that they "won't just roll over"... is that a sexual reference or a canine reference? -- nm - Max Jul 17, 19:15 3

    - That's true, but based on Caine, I imagine Alfred had a military life before he came to work with the Waynes when Bruce was born. 50's too young. -- nm - Max Jul 17, 19:37

      - I could sell it back but this way you don't have to pay shipping and it's about the same to me either way. - spamlet (iPhone) Jul 17, 17:23 1
