Love the DG's power approach.
Reminds me of a private meeting years ago. My hand was aching at the time, so I was working one of those small exercise balls. The oddest thing happened, slowly at first, almost imperceptibly, the man I was meeting with started a squirm. His eyes kept shifting to my hand that was working the ball. Suddenly, I realized every time I squeezed it, he'd shift nervously until finally he crossed one leg over the other rather tightly and was leaning over as if protecting himself.
Being all of 5'3.5" (hey, that half inch matters) I've never seen myself as all that intimidating but in relating the story to my hubby later, he said it sounded like the poor guy felt threatened and emasculated. Who'd have thought a shortie with an exercise ball could carry so much power?
