…
My neural-psychologist--to my mom--about MY blog: "WHY does A.J. blog about BAD stuff? 'I thought he's supposed to give people … HOPE!'"
My mom's retort: "I like to think that he DOES. …
Some people just doN'T WANT it!"
My neural-psychologist: "My OTHER patients 'know a hero
when (they) see one. Too few characters out there
(METAPHORICALLY), flying around (METAPHORICALLY--
on his WHEELCHAIR) like that, saving old girls like me.
And, Lord knows, kids NEED a hero. A courageous, self-
sacrificing person. Setting examples for all of us.
Everybody LOVES a hero. People line up for them, cheer
them, scream their names. And, years later, they'll tell how
they stood in the rain for hours just to get a glimpse of the
one who taught them how to hold on a second longer. I
believe there's a hero in all of us, that keeps us honest,
gives us strength, makes us noble, and--finally--allows us to
die with pride, even though sometimes we have to be
steady, and give up the thing we want the most--EVEN our
dreams.'"
(I STUMBLE in--after EAVESDROPPING.)
ME: "I CERTAINLY appreciate the two of you
COMPLIMENTING me by quoting 'The Amazing Spiderman
2'!
However, as 'hope-FULL' as I am, I like to THINK that if I
WERE a 'superhero', I'd be 'IRONman' … 'cuz I'm ~HALF-
metal ('cuz of my METALLIC surgical-implants), ~HALF-
man. … PLUS, I HAVE been known to be rather HELPFUL
& INSPIRING. … ALSO, PLEASE, Doc, do NOT IMPLY that
I'm a 'DREAM-killer'! I PREFER to explain MY 'work' as
INFLUENCING or converting 'DREAMS' into 'REALITY'. …
ACTUALLY, now that I think about it: (Calculating/Double-
checking my math) I'm half-MAN, half-AMAZING."

Speaking of my "GIVING", I "TREATED" two friends out to a WONDERFUL lunch at my FAVORITE Turkish restaurant!
(… Since I canNOT attend their out-of-state MARRIAGE-ceremony, I transported 'em THERE (AND back to MY house, recommended any/ALL food-/drink-selections & PAID FOR the mealS. That GREAT conversation/talking & DELICIOUS food was my wedding-GIFT.)
______________________________________________________________________
…
During SAID meal, my "high school valedictory" was mentioned.
(… DAMN my IMPROPER "PASSIVE-voice"!)
I SEMI-joked/-bragged how MY speech was rather/VERY "TOUCHING".
((… SSSHHH! I doN'T WANT the POLICE to "LOCK me UP" for "pedophilia" ("high school kids" = "aged 15 to 18").))
