Weakness

While playing superheroes, Spider-Man (played by Maxfield) discovered Swamp Thing's (played by Bill) weakness.

It wasn't Krypotnite. It was not the color yellow. It was not water or fire.

It was a swift punch in the nuts.

It is also the weakness of Solomon Grundy, Juggernaut, Magneto, Lex Luther, Dr. Octopus, Electro, Joker, Black Manta, General Zod, Two Face, Dr. Doom, and Sabretooth.

That seems to be a universal weakness. The three males in our house, no matter what their age, have it too.

Makes you wonder why there aren't more female superheroes...

Ah yes...the Achile's heel of all men. Wait, maybe that's not the best description.

A friend of mine recently got hit with a ping pong paddle that "slipped" out of his opponent's hand. It was direct hit.

Kids love the nutshot. It's why I fear them.

I have heard you list that same list of names at the end of your post when referring to the guys Lauren dated prior to you coming along.

Crotch kicking/punching got me through a lot of hard times as the baby of the family...**sigh**...those were the good ol' days.

Hello. I've known this amazing blog since day one, but I haven't read it for a while now. I recently visited it again and started laughing in a matter of seconds (while learning something at the same time); it felt just like the first times! It's sad to hear about your Dad though... but you still have, as I've always thought, a beautiful family.
I'm sorry I didn't comment on this specific post (I'm not really a fan of superheroes, heh) and I hope you don't find my comments creepy or anything, I mean them. I wanted to say hi, and I hope everything goes well for you and your family.
Best wishes from Córdoba, Argentina.

The super hero with a defense shield just around the boys is who I want to be.
