The key is "when needed".  Been known to do that myself. I did, 60 years 
ago have a 10 minute monologue of swearing practiced up, no 4 letter 
word used twice. But common sense has prevailed and I've forgotten 9 
minutes of it by now. No longer 10' tall & bulletproof I guess. :)

The years do that to a body, so now my std excuse is that if I had of 
known I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of 
myself.  But I would have had to start practicing that the summer of 
1960 when, for lack of a better job, I spent several months in an iron 
foundry. Woman and at that point, 2 kids to feed. But I learned a lot 
about hot ($2400F) iron too.
