However, I turned out alright, so I'm not complaining.

Are you saying I drink too much, I don't now you from beans, If Ron or Bert said that, maybe I'ld consider it, but I am no alcoholic. I do not drink on the job, cept for old coffee, I do not drink before the job, and I sure as shit do not drink while huntin' some SupNat badass.
Sides their fella how many years you've been huntin' to tell me a damn thing!

Some of us have worked and fought together. We have a pretty good idea of who is who. Still, all of us... we have all had to earn our keep here.Ron Caliburn wrote:Azrael wrote: I do not freely give respect until I feel it has been earned.
Don't expect any different treatment from us.

Nor is this a contest, Azrael. We are not here to boast of our accomplishments; we are here to help Humanity. And whether you have 417 or 1,000 years of experience, it does not matter. You can still learn and you can still teach. Please remember, our success depends upon our ability to work together.
You freely admit Ben could be a good person, whom I can vouch for, so I will withhold judgment or comment on your other observations. But one cannot give advice without being able to receive it. There is a saying I have often remembered in trying to recover my past: wise men don’t need advice; only fools scorn it. So look at yourself in the mirror, and what do you see? Are you someone who fights for the right reasons? It may be your curse to fight Evil, it may be your destiny . . . fine. It is mine as well. But I have learned a great deal from those I protect. Do not presume you can do any better than us because of the simple fact of your seniority in age.
So slayer, ask yourself the same question, as I will also: can I be better?
I know I can. That is why I am here.
And welcome.
