My mom bought my son Grant a package of Underoos from a super-sale at Wal-Mart. All the characters on the underwear were D-List superheroes - guess that explains why they were on super-sale.
Grant and I were looking at one of the characters, named Metro Man. He's so obscure that I can't even find a picture of him on Google to show you. Anyway Grant asked me if Metro Man is a good guy. I said I didn't know for sure. Grant said -
"He must be. They don't put bad guys on underwear."
So there you go. Take the high road today. You never know where it might lead.

Any chance it was Metroid Prime or Mega Man?

BTW have you been able to go to any FIFA WWC matches?

No, neither of those Thin Guy! Metro Man is green and wears something that looks like a motorcycle helmet. And of course he has the obligatory six-pack.
I only got to see the FIFA WWC matches on TV. Thought about that when you mentioned you were watching the US-England match on TV - we saw the same game. It was a good one.
BTW congrats on making your way back to the Hot Blogs list! You're popular once more. :)

Forrest, I will *not* tell Grant that you implied Dijia Automan is on the D-List of superheroes. Grant adores Dijia! Metro Man is different from Dijia. I would take a picture of the underwear character and post it, but it just seems wrong to post pictures of my son's underwear on the internet... :)
