Yay procrastination! I went out today and, like, actually DID STUFF, and it totally threw off the rhythm of my fic writing. ;-)
But you're right: that is an incredibly awesome line. It sounds familiar to me, too, but I can't remember what it's from. But that is some John backstory I'd believe...and yet I equally believe your version from "The Best Things in Life Are Free." (In fact, my intense love for your version of John's dad is one of the things that I think threw me while writing "Horses"--I kept wanting him to be like TBTILAF!dad, instead of the total ass he was supposed to be for that story. Damn you! *g*)
Anyway, I'm still convinced that John is hiding something huge. Other than his big gay love for Rodney.
