There are lots of different kinds of guts. My personal specialty was always keeping myself from backing down if I could convince myself to do something in the first place. Especially involving women. Calling a woman for the first time. The first kiss. Or (on a different, and less rewarding, note) standing in line outside a strip club without bolting. Yeah . . .
Anyway, the point of this is that it takes a very different kind of guts to to address a crowd, or dance in public. I've never had the kind of guts, but if I can walk down a public hallway in a bathrobe, greeting people (including women) I barely know, walk into the bathroom of some guys I don't know, take a shower, and do this whole thing without deciding it'd be easier just to give up being clean entirely, then I am closer to having this other kind of guts than I used to me.
"What powers you ask,
How 'bout the power of flight?
That do anything for you?
How 'bout the power to kill a yakk,
From 200 yards away . . . WITH MIND BULLETS!!!" - Wonderboy by Tenacious D
