I happen to like my stomach unshivved, so ever since then I've opted for the "say nothing, get to a phone, call the police" policy. Crazy angry people can't really be reasoned with. Called out crazy angry people? Like napalm on the campfire.

Anyway, I've heard good things about you Austin folk. Thanks for the nice comment.<br /><br />Sue, thanks, but I think you can do better in your choice of heroes.

Two key concepts for you if you insist on exercising out of doors - cell phone and 911.<br /><br />Also, interestingly enough, I've been called the n word a time or two - and you might describe my coloring as,mmm, well, not pasty, if you were being generous. And this, in Austin TX, genesis of all tolerance and agape love.<br /><br />So, read some older posts as well, you're funny. And as for the super-hero angle, I don't know, my husband is working on some Magnum PI thing, can't help you with that.urban farmhousehttp://www.urbanindustrialfarmhouse.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570740.post-32407381641243569232009-04-24T06:46:00.000-07:002009-04-24T06:46:00.000-07:00Monica, congratulations, you are now officially my...Monica, congratulations, you are now officially my superhero sidekick.<br /><br />Hi Monkey.
