      Eh, Gates is older and has shown more commitment to the idea than most. I still wouldn’t trust him as far as I could throw him but the foundation has done some good things for a long time. And maybe with fewer self-aggrandizing press stories compared to others.

        How do you go and, true to the expression, really throw someone?

        Does it imply throwing a human being as we’d throw a log? Perhaps a brick? I’d expect it involves a lot of physical strenght. And does it imply being from a stationary position?

        Does throwing someone down a window or from a moving car or perhaps a boat count?

        It intrigues me.

          Left hand by the scruff, right hand by the belt, lift, swing forward, back, forward, and release. Easy :)
