Bob, this chapter had me laughing out loud!
You have to admit that you aren’t from Krylon.”
Clark clears his throat. “Ellen, my planet was called Krypton. Krylon is a brand of paint.”
*falls off chair laughing*
It takes considerably longer to get ready for the trip than the actual flight. It might have been quicker but this was the first time Dad had seen the spin-into-the-suit trick and he asked to see Clark do it a few times.
Yeah, that would be pretty amazing to see!
“Well, I’m Ultra Woman. And I do have powers just like Clark. It turns out that under just the right conditions, the abilities can be passed on to another person.” I pause for a minute. She sure seems calm.
Finally, with a note of typical Lucy impatience she says, “Well, what else?”
Now I’m surprised. “What do you mean, ‘what else’? Isn’t that enough?”
“I guess so. But I figured all that out before you phoned. I thought you had some big shocking news to tell me.”
Laughing again. It's just so "ho-hum" to Lucy!
“Think about it. In the last half-dozen years or so, you almost married the fourth richest man in the world who turns out to be a criminal mastermind. Then, you take up with your partner who turns out to be Superman. You told me you’ve been to other dimensions and you’ve traveled through time. After all that, how could you possibly expect me to be surprised you now have super powers?”
*falls off chair laughing again*
And, like Lieta, I'm looking forward to the Sam and Bernie geek-fest!
