We've Been Tagged

I guess when you get "tagged" you are supposed to share 6 things about you that are interesting. Here they are (3 for each of us):

Sarita:
1) grew up without indoor plumbing for the first 5 years of her life
2) was the prom queen as well as valedictorian
3) lived in NY for a month while attending art camp

Jesse:
4) has never had stitches
5) got to play with monkeys, a sloth, an ocelot, parrots, iguanas, sea turtles, and a penguin while in Ecuador
6) has been hospitalized as a child for a migraine/mild stroke


Personally, I don't know how exciting either of us are so I've decided to spice up this post by adding 6 reasons Batman is better than Superman:

1) Superman can stop a bullet, but Batman is smart enough to get out of the way.
2) Batman has cool gadgets, every guy loves cool gadgets.
3) Superman is thick-headed enough to think that taking off his glasses will fool everyone, and the people of Metropolis are apparently foolish enough to fall for it.
4) Batman has martial arts training while Superman simply relies on his super strength.
5) Batman has the Batmobile, Bat-bike, Bat-plane, Bat-boat, etc. while Superman gets around with Chevro-legs (even if he's fast, that's just not that cool)
6) Batman owns an enormous company with a luxurious working environment and lives in a mansion (with a butler), and Superman hangs out in his dumpy apartment after getting home from working in a noisy cubicle

I could think of many other things to write about, but these were the first to come to mind. Feel free to leave comments on why Batman is better, or why you think Superman might be better.


Even if Superman is the man of steel, who would you be more intimidated by in a street fight? (Side note: in the new Batman you see Bruce Wayne spray painting his new body armor black. When did he put the Batman logo on the chest though? Also, doesn't Superman's cape look like it's held on by Velcro?)

I like the blog. I agree whole-heartedly about Batman vs. Superman. Another point for Batman is that he's human, so it's a lot easier for us guys to fantasize that we are him...
