A sudden adrenaline rush filled my very soul,
- A sudden adrenaline rush filled my very soul, when, as I stared outside my window, I saw a little old lady get robbed by a gang of douchebags. I grabbed my spandex costume and whip
- and yelled down, "Feel the lash of The Crimson Slash!" I struggled with my tights as I fell down the stairs. (Where's my cowl?) By the time I got there, the thugs and the old lady
- were dancing raucously to techno. Their fiendish schemes would be for naught once the West Mississippi Plastic Pants Task Force showed up to battle the octagenerian and bandits in
- a duel using only scissors. Te octogenarian lost, thus having to dress as a ballerina. Beginning to suspect that this was not a WWII documentary, I changed
- my friends completely. I love WWII documentaries. They were really committed to their costumes back then. We just don't have that these, days.
- I remember my first career, as an understudy in WWII documentaries. If the star died, I would receive his belongings, wives, etc. and literally become him. In "Manhattan Project",
- the star wasn't a person. It wasn't Oppenheimer, Graves, Szilárd or Einstein. It was the Gadget, a dense sphere of plutonium. When the birth of that star cast my shadow in the sand
- it was not visible to the naked eye, but it was there. Tiny photons were blocked by my body while those around me hit the sand. What could I do with this dense sphere of plutonium?
- I discovered I could float, I could travel through space & time effortlessly, essentially able to control the world & everyone in it. Like right here, right now. I am making you
- finish this story without a clue as to what's going on. But that's just like Gods isn't it? No consideration. No manners. Have faith, get on with it. Whatever.

And it's another heroic victory for our do-gooders-for-hire, the WMPPTF, revived after a decade-long hiatus.

Personal Trivie: My hometown was Los Alamos, NM, birthplace of the Atom Bomb, backdrop for the "Let the Right One in" remake, and Judy Blume's "Tiger Eyes." A small community overrun by scientists.

My hometown's filled with emotionally-abusive, proselytizing potheads.

That's a really exotic place, Chaz. I suppose you get a lot of 2 headed cat jokes.
