Sheesh, a guy leaves for a couple of days and finds he's got about 300-400 posts to catch up on. Moreover, I've got only a little time this afternoon to freep. But I just can't let this one pass.

Havoc to CindyDawg: "You'll find I'm the one of the closest things to kryptonite to these guys."

Uh Havoc, you sure you want to stick with this simile?

First, kryptonite was only lethal to Superman, the ultimate force for good in Metropolis. (A role I'm sure all us Catholics would be willing to play.-)

Second, kryptonite was always the means used by the forces of evil to try to bring down Superman so that they could carry off their nefarious plans.

And, finally, despite possessing kryptonite, the forces of evil were just never quite able to bring it off and bring down Superman. Good always triumphed in the end. And, interestingly, quite often what led to the forces of evil ultimate demise was often a misplaced sense of pride.

Well, I didn't say it as a matter of pride but rather jokingly and as a response to the knee jerk reaction ya'll had everytime I'd appear or say anything at the outset. As I remember it, all I had to do was post to have China cussing me out. Ya'll tried everything to shut me up including trying to get me banned. So, ammusingly enough, kryptonite lept to mind. Get it away at all costs less it damage me... LOL. Perhaps I should have used the parallel of Arther and the nights of Ni. You guys covered your ears and kept yelling "stop saying the word". LOL. But if you must be dramatic - amuse yourself.

You have to keep in mind, though, that Bizarro Superman is immune to green kryptonite. It is the blue kryptonite that effects him. ;o)
