Pick Your Power
When i was a kid and my friends and I used to play superheros I would always be Iceman. I thought he was just the coolest. It wasn't until I was in college that I was exposed to Gambit by my Big Brother in my fraternity (yes I know, I did have to pay for my friends in college). Now if I would have to pick which superhero to be it would be Gambit all the way. I mean HELLO! What is cooler (and I use the term cool very liberally from a geeks perspective)than flicking some cards from a deck and WHAMO! Instant explosion. It almost makes me want to play super heros again, but I guess I'll just have to wait until Friday when X-Men 3 opens (Oh man I can't wait). It is just a shame that Gambit won't be in it.

You know what's cooler than flipping exploding cards? Always having exact change, that's what. Without having to dig through all your pockets Mr. Bojangles - don't get all excited. How come no super hero ever had that kind of practical power?
Iceman and Gambit? Christ, I must be getting old...
hee hee - Iceman is the coolest. That was funny.
Did you ever see Mystery Men? Crapped out at the theatres. But I loved it. I loved their "powers".
The Mystery Men was awesome! Crappy super heroes for crappy times.
Fraternity Big Brother? Vinnie, say it isn't so!
