I don’t want to be Superman

So I finally realized why I always like Spiderman instead of the other superheroes.  Spiderman glides.  He tumbles.  He’s an acrobat.  He has grace and skill, and yet he’s still connected to the earth.

I just saw a program on the Discovery Channel about a new urban sport, free-running.  The folks they were profiling were runing around London, jumping over obstacles, scaling walls, jumping across roofs and down from buildings.

I suppose this comes from my own natural lake of grace and agility. I wish I could be that graceful.  I wish I had the ability to climb and jump around all life’s obstacles like that.  I guess it’s why I like riding my bicycle, because the addition of angular momentum allows me to be more smooth and graceful than I can be on my feet (skids across the pavement notwithstanding.)

The end

It’s over. And I can’t sleep.  Though that would be because of my shoulder.

I’ve been reading Roomies / It’s Walky for almost five years now.  It was probably the second or third web-comic I ever started reading, and now it’s over.  And I’m kind of sad now.  It was a long tale, and I got to really care about the characters.  And the cartoonist would know just how to rip his audience’s hearts out at just the right moment.  But I’m glad that the main characters finally got their happy ending.  After all they went through, they deserved it.

If you’ve never seen or read It’s walky before, you should start.  There’s over seven years of archived material there though, so take your time.  And enjoy it.  Because now you know.  Now there really is an end.
