I haven't seen it yet. I hope it's good. I kinda identify with "The man of steel". You know every now and then I put on some colorful tights that I bought at the good-will store which were marked "Beginner Ballerena tights", put on a cape (which is actually a part of my window drapes) and go out looking for bad guys. Lex Luther types. I don't wear glasses in real life so as a switch I use the glasses along with my super hero out-fit to disguise myself. The only glasses I have were broke right in the middle so I fixed it with some masking tape and I can't see too good with them on. So around dusk I go trucking down the street to the local mall ocassionally stopping, fists clenched on each hip, standing as tall as I can, head shifting from side to side and eye up traffic just to let them know that I'm on the job. They appreciate it too. I can tell by the way they point and laugh at me because of the bad guys I'm ready to turn over to the police. Ah, but man the criminals are clever because they got the police thinking I'm the dangerous one. Don't worry though..Truth, Justice and the American way will prevail...

walrusjk,

I thought something was familiar about you...

Man of Steel, meet the Man of Dough

Anditsdeeptoo,
it looks like he tried to suck in his stomach for the picture and his chest caved in.

hellifiknow,
Whew! Just got off the hunt for bad guys. No luck. Just found an old fella rambling about God and I said "Hey!" He looked at me and I gave him a couple of bucks. It's 2(am)and I was practicing my take-off and landings. Neither one really works so well which I'm baffled about. Trying to take off and well let's just say the landing is much smoother since I never actually took off. I still hit the ground hard with my hands extended but I figure hey..."Super heroes ain't got it easy." Figure I might go after Bin Laden once I get the flying thing down. Then George (You know who). Both need to be picked up and dangled by their collars way up in the sky and given a talking to. I wonder if I could do that and wag one finger at the same time?....

walrusjk,

now this had me rolling! esp. that picture, JTF. he comes to rescue you and you end up calling 911 to help you both.

JTF,
That's not Superman. That's Silverman, my accountant!
