PiscesThe Day Spider-Man Moved In -- and Why I Love It
Guest blogger Lenore Moritz: So I was minding my own business when my 4-year-old son came up to tell me that it was time he had a superhero action figure. My friends who have girls have been buying princess dolls and costumes for a while now (often reluctantly), so I knew the time would come. I figured this would be an opportunity to use the money in his frog bank -- a combination of dollars slipped to him by family members and quarters from neighbors who "hire" him to water their plants or cats while they're away.
- A six-pack of very small superhero figures
- A black-suited Superman (I know, right? When did Superman start to stray from his usual blue, red and yellow getup? Stick to what you know, Superman.)
- Iron Man
- Spider-Man with two removable parts (gold boots and wings with lasers)
- His web-shooting hand position is the "I love you" symbol in sign language. (That's a nice subliminal message.)
- At 48 years old, he's in excellent shape. That's inspiring.
- It was undeniably cute to see all six inches of action figure lying at the corner of my son's bed while my son lay dreaming ... probably about Spider-Man.
- In my book, as insects go, spiders (the non-poisonous ones) are the lesser of the evils, because they are self-sufficient. Instead of waiting around for my crumbs or my blood, they're busy making webs and catching their own food ... and that food is often the other pesky flying things I detest.
- Spider-Man has a "spider-sense" which allows him to react to danger quickly. (Hey Spidey: If you could key into your "spider-sense" while simultaneously doing a work call, making salad and writing a to-do list, you'd be a mom!)

Hi, - found this website inadvertently when drifting across the web this evening, and happy that I did! I do like the style and design and colours, but I really should say that I’m having difficulties when it loads. I’m making use of Netscape 8 browser for mac, and the footer does not line up fully. i am fairly certain applied an identical design on a client’s internet site, but the menu seems Ok on mine. I think the fault is at this end & I’m guessing it is time to change!
Fascinating
Very helpful
This weblog seems to get a great deal of visitors. How do you promote it? It gives a nice unique spin on things. I guess having something useful or substantial to give info on is the most important factor.
