In the last two months, Iâ€™ve been shot, stabbed, beaten and blown up a few dozen times, and that doesnâ€™t count all the magical ways Iâ€™ve almost been killed. Iâ€™d have been dead a long time ago if not for my friends, one of whom had just jumped off the cliff after me. Iâ€™d have been a lot more appreciative if he hadnâ€™t pushed me first."
