It’s a miracle some kids reach adulthood. When I was ten years old, my yearning to fly like Superman almost nipped me in the bud.
At that young age, I idolized comic book characters, including Batman and Robin, Spider Man, Plastic Man, and Wonder Woman, but my number-one hero was Superman. I marveled at his feats of strength, his X-ray vision, and the way women fell all over him. But his flying skills fascinated me most.
