Let us just say, it is in my best interest not to piss Rick off too much.

The dude really balances me out well, and is an extremely patient, and caring partner. He really puts up with an incredible amount of... punishment... from me, all things considered.

I can count on one hand, the times I've seen Rick go full Johnny Storm and "Flame On !" in anger, and, well, let's just say I'm glad that fury was not ever directed at me.

Generally, incredibly caring, friendly, and accommodating, but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T EVER PISS OFF A GINGER CAUSING THEM TO ENTER A RAGE-STATE !

EDIT: One of those times, though, he raged out at one of the cattle back in Montana, and it was the fucking funniest thing ever, in retrospect.

Me: "Dude. It's a goddamn cow. I think you need to consider calming down a bit..."
Rick: "IT CHEWED MY FAVORITE HAT BOB ! WHAT THE FUCK !?!!!"

Rick settled on a rare steak after all was said and done.
