Re: English language basis for "throw"

punt.  But, specialteam or runback?
        
die + raise = ascend.

The thing I don't like about C++/Java try/catch syntax is the way
the blocks are daisychained.  That is not intuitive to the flow.
The exception handlers should be more closely bound -- syntactically --
to the try block.  A switch statement would be closer; but I think an
OO syntax would be better.  You know, something like

        try {
                cough "outa here";

                catch {
                        matawba => { sustain; },
                        ebola => { overrule; },
                        { punt; }
                }
        }
