Your last chance to become a super hero?
Just what we need, another frickin’ super hero. This one’s “Fusion Man,” and check out the slideshow. I guess he has an okay act, if you’re impressed by a macho hunk soaring majestically over the Alps in a rocket suit, nothing below him but miles of blue sky. But I worry that all the good super personas have been taken, leaving nothing for guys like me.
I need something just a little safer, so I’m trademarking my own super character, “Airport Moving Sidewalk Man!” Picture the scene:
“Someone PLEASE help me! Ruffians have grabbed my duty-free Chivas Regal!”
“Fear not, gentle lady! “Airport Moving Sidewalk Man” is on their trail!”
“But they’re running, and you’re barely moving on that sidewalk! You’re an imbecile!”
“No need to thank me, ma’am, just doing what’s right…”
Former professional Swiss military pilot Yves Rossy, also known as “Fusionman”, flies in the sky like a rocketeer in the southern Swiss Alps near Bex May 14, 2008. Rossy is the first man ever to successfully fly with wings fully powered by four engines on his back. REUTERS/Denis Balibouse

My stepdad painted a perfect floor-to-ceiling replica of the ghostbusters logo on my wall when I was 10. It was fucking wicked and I missed it when we moved out.He was a worthless asshole douchebag overall, but at least he did one thing in his life that was cool.Edit: This logo

Except for the little part where you can’t actually buy it unless it’s a real headline.

Sometimes I was allowed in the house during the winter. That was very nice. I wasn’t even switched very hard when I’d beat the dog to the supper bowl.

You should just start a business and use that as an investment.

Contact the Blue Dog members of the House of Representatives to tell them that you DO NOT WANT the Senate FISA bill with telecom immunity to become law.

why is Lou Dobbs so bad? He seems to bring up stuff the other networks won’t touch…
