My kid asked me the other day what my super powers were. I said always being one step ahead.
She didn’t find that funny.
– I can fly and climb walls, – was her answer.
Valid, I will give her that, though over-done.
I have spent a day or two, on and off, thinking about this question, and I think what I want to do is find all the things that have been lost. What a power that would be!
I could find the Ark of the Covenant, and all those car keys!
I could discover lost languages, and all that lost time!
Dates that went nowhere and timeshare presentations!
All that lost money I would find!
Lost connections, and lost loves!
And while I’m on this, where are the people with super powers that are just lazy about life. You know, the guy who can create dimension portals, and all they use that for is making it quicker to get a beer from the fridge. Or the person with laser vision that only uses it to heat up food.
Just an idea.
