I admire many super hero's, too many to list them all here. They are super hero's to me because in brief moments, during overwhelming times, they made extraordinary choices.
I tell one because they consisted of a group. William B. Travis, James Bowie, Davy Crockett, and 179 other men looked over the ramparts of the Alamo at Antonio L?pez de Santa Anna's magnificently attired 1500 man army. When ordered to surrender or die they replied in laymen's terms, "Go F*** Yourself!"
(In an interesting side note. Last week, Travis's letter sent out by currier at night between Mexican lines, which asked all Americans who sided with freedom and liberty to come to the aid of the men in San Antonio, returned to the Alamo for the first time since it left 177 years earlier.)
As I said, there are many super hero's I have admired. They have already made those extraordinary kinds of choices in their lifetimes. I wonder who will be the super hero's of tomorrow.
