I looked in my sent box tonight and saw that I have over 600 e-mails sitting there. I don't need them all, so I'm cleaning it out - but I need to save some of them, because they contain story snippets and ideas and I'm not sure I have them anywhere else. That'll take me awhile! While I was cleaning, I found this, from 2004. The VegasFen have seen this but I don't think anyone else has.

Irish was walking home from the store through the park last night and saw a couple of kids running around with towels tied around their necks, playing superheros. The little girl said, "I'm going to be Superman." Her brother replied, "You can't be Superman!"
"Why not?"
"'Cause he's got a penis and you don't."
"Well, I'll just go out and get one, then."
At which point a man, presumably their father, yelled from the sidelines, "You'll get a penis when I'm old and gray!"

I'd completely forgotten about that, though I almost fell over laughing when Irish told me about it. I had to post it here because I don't want to lose it. (That exchange, by the way, would never have happened when I was a kid!)
