Faster than a speeding pac-man.
More powerful than a pack of hungry children.
Able to leap tall mountains in a single bound.
Look! Up in the sky!
It's a bird. It's a plane. It's Superman!
Yes, it's Superman (my husband) - strange visitor from another planet who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. Superman - who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel with his bare hands, and who, disguised as Bill, mild mannered computer programmer for a great metropolitan health insurance subsidiary, fights the never ending battle for Truth, Justice and a Good Night's Sleep.
While I was off enjoying a dinner of raw fish and seaweed with Anne and an old college friend, Super Bill was home with 3 boys all clamoring to be driven to an Arcade, where all 4 men could battle the forces of evil in digital form. After successfully defeating all evil-doers and redeeming tickets for all kinds of plastic junk, the 4 men (William, Romney, Quentin and Bill) decided they felt powerful enough to scale mountains and hiked to the top of Ensign Peak. If that weren't enough to tire a mere mortal man, Super Bill prepared for his biggest challenge of the evening-- dinner and bed-time.
After all 3 boys were tucked safely into their warm cocoons, Super Bill earned more money for more arcade visits working his contract job as well as packing lunches for his son's for school tomorrow.
Yes, people, look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, no...
It's SUPER BILL!
(Did I mention all I did was eat some raw fish and gab all night).
