Batman Deserves Your Respect!

OK, maybe not THIS Batman!  ;P

OK, maybe not THIS Batman! ;P

*Deep breath* Ok, I’m hearing talk out there that Batman is not a Super Hero because he does not possess super powers.

*Exhale*

As calmly as I can, please allow me to put this argument to bed.

Batman is the one super hero you could actually be. You’ll never be rocketed to Earth from Krypton. You’ll never happen to be standing by certain chemicals when they’re struck by lightning. You’ll never be given a ring that projects your will. You won’t be bitten by a radioactive/bio-engineered spider. As far as we know, Gamma radiation just causes cancer. In some instances, Gamma can be used to treat cancer, but it’s also the deadliest radiation released from atomic bombs. So forget all that.

Christmas will not be cancelled this year!

This Christmas season is seeing a lot of folks either out of work or pinching pennies so hard their fingers hurt. Up here in the Vail Valley, it’s no different. With continuing news of layoffs and cutbacks, sales are down at Wal-Mart and elsewhere. If you just stand at the front of Wal-Mart and watch the carts go by, one thing is immediately apparent: they are full of groceries.
