I love your feedback and the fact that you read my review and have so much to say. Yeah, you're right in that the smack down is posturing, and the Winchesters aren't playing around here. I had a bunch of metaphors I wanted to choose from (pack leader and followers was one of them) but I didn't want to overdo those metaphors and so had to pick just one, hence the smack down, which was a lot of fun.

You've got some interesting insights about how men fight, I hadn't quite thought about it like that before. That they don't concern themselves with the fallout as much as women do. Because women tend to be more oriented towards the community and bonding within it and fighting with no care as to who gets hurt is not usually how we do it, is it. This is new for me, which is strange, seeing as I've been a woman all my life!

JDM is the living end and about the hottest thing going, all of which he brings to Papa Winchester with a smoky intensity that unsettles me. I would love to see more eps with him in it and see things from his point of view, to see it through his eyes, why he made the choices he did and how he really really feels about them. The stories we get (or the attitudes we see) towards John from each of his boys is different, I like the way you put it, Dean as the soldier (he's not really a yes man, never was) and Sam as the intellectual. Of course they're going to see The Dad through their own filter, and I'm sure we've not heard the last of the John stories they have to tell, like what about those secret weapons caches? And what other things has he not told the boys? Only KRIPKE knows! And he's not telling. Yet.
