Superheroes are among us!


Before I start my rant on superheroes, check the kid out! I used to dance like that when I was 4 too. Not. This korean kid has mad skillz. Too bad, he'll probably end up at a sweatshop, making Nike shoes for an hourly wage of $2. BUT! If this kid lives in the US, he'll end up a very good, gay dancing asian. Kinda like William Hung, minus the singing. I hope for the latter.

Okay, moving on, today I read an article that actually opened up possibilities in becoming a superhero. A man in Texas, Larry Hatch, age 57, woke up one day and noticed that his hands and feet had become larger, clubbing actually, becoming really big. In addition, his face had grown deep wrinkles in his face and his hair grew faster than usual. One of the first incidents happened at a friend's house, where his face became more red than usual and his friend was afraid he was going to have a heartattack. In the end, poor Larry passed out and was brought to the hospital. I won't reveal the reason for his so-called "Incredible Hulkification", but it's in this article. He went from normal guy to "monster" in a couple of weeks. Very interesting.

Let's just say we could trigger this condition in lab specimens. We could make Hulkmen. Suddenly we'd not only see superheroes on the silverscreen, but in real life! Maybe genetically altered specimens capable of moving at twice or thrice (!) the speed of a normal human. It's of course a question of ethics, but it would be fun. Even this chick has a superpower!
The power of bad, bodily odor! The Incredible Smelly SuperModel!
