   MP> >Good for you!  I just can't wrap my mind around a female playing a   
   MP> superhero in that role because it doesn't fit in with the comic book   
   creation.  Now we have Supergirl on TV and it looks to be quite popular. She   
   is supposed to be Superman's cousin, but I only watched the pilot episode.   
       
   Now DC Comics and Marvel Comics are having a fight over who stole from whom.   
   Those guys ought to get a life.   
       
   BTW, I watched  "Escape To Sonoita" and didn't expect that truck tank to be   
   holding 3,000 gallons of water.  (-:   
       
   I lost interest before that.   
       
   MP> take on a theme that a lot of the other CW super hero shows have... being   
   MP> politically correct... so I lost interest.   
       
   "ARROW" was okay, but I lost interest in it, too.  "The Tomorrow People"   
   needed better writers.

   That's right.

   I think I have my book detectives mixed up again.   
       
   MP> I knew he was quite a bit older than her.  Normally, I would not think it

   MP> (maybe Howard Hawks) once said that he thought they fell in love with   
   MP> each   
   MP> other's characters in "To Have and Have Not" and not actually with each   
   MP> other.  If that is true, considering how well it worked, maybe it was not   
   MP> such a bad thing!   
       
   Jealousy has been with us a long time.
