 Yes, there are real life superheros out there. They just aren't dressed up in fancy tights, spandex, capes and cool high tech jewelry. Policemen, Firemen, Emergency Medical Technicians, our Soldiers in any branch of the service. As with the fictional comic book heroes, unfortunately some turn to the dark side, and it casts our good guys in a bad light.
Where would we be without our real life heroes? As bad as things seem often times, we could all be living a major hell right now if it were not for our heroes. I would imagine we'd all be living in a world not to dissimilar to, Mad Max 'Beyond Thunderdome'.., and while that makes for a cool movie - it would suck in reality. It would be a completely dark and totally ugly world.
When you look at some place in the world even now, War Lords, rule and slaughter people at will, making the rest of the people in their turf suffer greatly, stealing their food, forcing children to join their ranks. For them such a world of Mad Max, really exists with too few Mad Max,s to make a difference. And trust me - if a guy showed up wearing fancy leotards and funky bling bling to stop them - the bling-bling guy would be slaughtered. Its better to send in men who are dressed for the part. The enemy will not die from laughter, people. It just doesn't work that way. The U.S., Canada, Britain and select others live in a utopia by comparison, thanks to our real life superheros!
SO - next time you see a cop, a fireman, an EMT, a soldier or any one of many real life heroes out there - STOP AND SAY HELLO! Thank them for being there, and what the heck - ask for their autograph. They deserve your hero worship more than fake Hollywood heroes. Brad Pitt? No, sorry. He's not a hero. He gets paid to pretend he is. John Travolta? forget it. Angelina Jole? She looks hawt - but aside from that, she's not a real hero. Every thing she does makes me question if its for press value translating into a bigger bank account - but a cop? or other real life hero? He or she doesn't have mega millions in his wallet. They do their job and does not consist of glamor, glitz or mega millions - but a desire to serve the public trust.
Do yourself and them a favor - hug a REAL hero today! In fact there should be a National "Hug A Hero" day - and anyone during that time dressing up like Superman to distort the real hero image should be locked up for 24 hours. Say no to fake heroes - and yes to the real ones.
 HOWEVER - if I REALLY were to be a Superhero of the fictional kind - GreenLantern is da man! But since that name has been taken, I opt for " Daveman, The Green-Flashlight".
By the way - guess who is back? Well, updated at least. I'm just hoping he's back. Kevin-The-One-Armed-Boy, man..., He's one of the three + 1 Amigos (Ktoab, Scott, Herb and Myself) and thats because we gots religious value, something I'm not ashamed of. I just get ashamed when I slip up. But this part of the entry isn't about me - but about Baked Chunk: http://bakedchunk.blogdrive.com/
(I made up the Amigos stuff but thats okay - I like it, it stays)
I'M A WEINER! I WAS ONE OF THE WINNERS OF ABBBY-NORMALS CONTEST I won this cool Skiing pass to ski at Abby-Basin.., a new skiing lodge what has all kinds of cool crap! I laugh in your faces - I am so happy and thrilled. Yes, with this free trip I can achieve new injuries in which to blog about. I SO RAWK!

A SECOND grader (just 7 years old) drew a series of pictures; one of which had him suspended from school for a day. What did he draw? Some MALE CHILDREN have (for the most part) drawn forever - a stick figure holding a gun. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071020/ap_on_re_us/gun_drawing_suspension
What has happened to this nation? On things we should clamp down on, we don't - and needless things we turn into sinister mountain. I cite my last blog entry - which IS something to be major upset about, but noo - we pass having our souls sold out to the devil, so to speak, and yet raise hell over an innocent incident.
Sorry about this and the last rant. This is supposed to be a FUN place to visit. I rarely these days discuss world events or things like this, but once in a while, I like to get this stuff off my chest.
And by the way - I'm not really a bad guy. I'm just " pictured " that way - LOL

Prayers for Herb's Dad - are requested. Well wishes are good too.
John Fogerty (of CCR fame) has a new album out, "Revival" - 12 songs, all of them really good stuff. Its a little bit country, a little bit of the old rock and rollishness he was best known for. I recommend this to to any CCR / John Fogerty Fan.
Update On Daughter: It seems baby Job, is teasing his momma. First he's ready to go - then he backs off. The doctor said if she hasn't had the baby by next Thursday, they may want to induce labor. Oh sure! hasn't the girl gone through enough? Now he wants to put her to work in the middle of the whole birthing thang. (Job is an acronym by the way)
I am predicting next Moday sometime after 12:Noon for Job's arrival
The Future of Caption Contests here at Davemania; Your opinions and suggestions are appreciated. I'm thinking of an experimental project whereby the participants make up a caption without seeing the image to be used - in which case I would provide only a short description of said image - OR - better yet.., no description at all. The winner would naturally be the one who's caption came closest to fitting the preselected image. What say ye?
Facts You Didn't Know About Daveman and Didn't Really Care to Know:
* I was born on a Saturday in the Spring on March 29, 1958
* I am 18,101 days old - so yeah, I prefer to hear it in years, thank you.
* I am also.., 434,439 hours old! Wow! But wait - it gets worse!
* I am 1,563,980,960 seconds old!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOO!
Cussing Good for You? Some lame brained [censored] British professor has determined through his agenda.., I mean .., studies.., that cursing in the work place is good for you and makes for excellent camaraderie with your work-mates. What a load of [censored] !!! This dumb [censored] no doubt loves to cuss so he concocts this [censored] [censored] [censored] survey, which just has to be rigged in order to justify his desire to openly cuss like some [censored] [censored] [censored] .., I mean.
If I wanted I guarantee you I could do a study, any study to try and justify something. All you need is volunteer subjects who angle that way and you have the makings of a study. Same with documentation surveys. I could scour the internet and snag all kinds of propaganda from other so called professors or whatever - and come up with erroneous conclusions to pass off as a matter of fact. MOST Studies these days are pure worthless [censored].
Honestly - while I can tolerate cursing - I can NOT tolerate those who can not speak without swearing once, twice or more in every single sentence. Its depressing. Its negative. There is nothing positive about it unless you enjoy hanging with people who love to cuss. I'm sorry, but that is a sorry state to exist in, when one loves to curse. I used to curse ALLOT! It didn't make me happy or a better person AND it didn't improve the lives of those around me. In fact I drew allot of flack for it. Thats not a positive impact my friend. If I have to curse to make friends - I do not need those people as friends. Again I'm talking about extreme habitual cursing - not everyone who says a word now and then.
Okay - I'm done ranting now. So get your sorry [expletive]'s back to work, you lazy gold bricking [censored] people. Cheese Louise. AND SOMEBODY BRING ME A [expletive] SAMMICH! Pronto! Cant ya feel the love here, you [expletive]'s? I do. I feel closer to everyone already..., hello? hello? HELLO? Alright! Who hid my favorite [censored] people? <groan> I guess what works in the work place doesn't work in the blog place. <sigh> [expletive] !!! I get no repect.
