While not the first man to don the blue tights or the red cape, he will always be Superman in my eyes. Not only for the role that made him famous, but for his inspiring struggle against the paralysis that has held him these many years. Christopher Reeve passed away today of heart failure at the age of 52.
Now that he is free of his broken body, he is finally able to fly. Godspeed Superman.
It might be just me but I found the clip below which ran recently on a local TV station outrageous. The Federal Reserve along with local banks and credit unions want to take the sting out of sending money south of the border by offering services that make it easier and less expensive.

Well it’s been a while but it’s nice to see a changing of the guard in the halls of Congress. For the first time in 12 years we have a Democratic majority, and here’s hoping that some much needed oversight will stop certain individuals from running roughshod over the Constitution, and the will of the [...]

I am sad because we lost a superman who is real hero in life.
I will always remember how he try to help others and make his life meaningful. My all time favorite romatic movie is his “Somewhere in Time”. It made me cry all the time whenever I watched it.
