What obscure super power would you choose for yourself?

Posted Thursday, June 05, 2008 11:28 AM by BJ not BK

I hate cliches...don't you?  Let's cut to the chase.  If you could have any super power in the world what would it be?  Most people say flying and most men say X-ray vision or invisibility.  We won't go there.

Here is the challenge to you my faithful readers.  What obscure super power would you choose for yourself if you could?  

Here is mine:

I would give myself the ability to manipulate and control melon fruits.  I would call myself - HONEY DO!!!

My powers would give me the ability to control, manipulate, move, transform, shape, any melon fruit into any fashion I so choose.

Here are some examples:  I could fashion a jet fighter out of fresh cantelope.  With a watermelon I could build a bridge or heal the planet of global warming.  You get the idea.

My weakness would be that melon fruit is seasonal.  If the melon is out of season then I would not have my super powers so....my challenge would be to hire a young sidekick, Pit, and he would be in charge of my underground hot house where I grow melons year round.  Pit would follow me day and night on my crusades, always close by with a refrigerated truck or cooler full of ripe, melons at my disposal so that I could always tap into my superior melon powers.

Beat that if you can ha ha ha ha.

Mine would be to be able to change the amount of fun you're having at any given time with any amount of people, the catch would be that you can't be by yourself.

I think I'll take the ability to seek out and destroy bad jokes. Obliterating them from the face of the earth forever.  Life is too hard for bad jokes.

What sickness lurks at the BJ household?  These last two posts have been really off-the-wall!

Oh boy! I would LOVE to have the ability to travel long distances in a single bound! None of that dreary traveling, or waiting in airports, of paying high gas prices! I can think of dozens of places and people I would like to visit around the world--and all I would have to do is take a step out my back door....

I would be RETROLOGOMAN and embrace the power to reach back through time and ensure that only communications of truth, goodness and beauty ever went forth from me.
