The Whole Planet Houston?

I have not posted anything in a couple weeks because I've been really busy. Superman II has been running heavily on HBO, and I have been studying General Zod like most yuppies study the GMAT. Now there's a guy, I mean a general, who knows how to lead. I was always a fan of Lex Luthor as a kid but now that I have matured, I realize that it is Zod who's most fit to rule this planet.

His media savvy alone qualifies him for the job. When he, Ursa and Non are trashing Houston when they first get to earth, he walks up to the TV reporter and asks who's seeing the broadcast (so he can command any and all to KNEEL BEFORE ZOD). The reporter replies, "just about the whole planet." Zod says, "the whole planet Houston?" The reporter says, "Earth. The whole planet earth." Right then, you see the lights go on in Zod's eyes. And I don't mean those lethal heat rays he usues to blow up cars in Metropolis. I mean the sinister, deadly focus Karl Rove must have felt when he first though of leaking Valerie Plame's CIA status to the press.

Only Zod isn't trying to get even with someone for criticizing his war-mongering. He's trying to get even with the man who put him in a glass jail for war-mongering. Bitter fate it is then when Superman, son of Zod's jailor, frees Zod accidentally while saving Paris from a nuke-u-lar attack. How does this stuff get so complicated? It's almost as confusing as a GMAT question. But I intend to pass with flying colors, so it's back to the TV for me.

Hey guys, how goes it? Hope all is well. This seemed like a good place to drop a line and say hello, considering that Zod is one of my favorite all-time villains. I would probably put him just ahead of the man that killed Bambi's mom and slightly behind Bela Lugosi from the original Dracula movie. I would add that I support his 2008 campaign with no reservations.

(By the way, for those of you that don't know me, my name is Adam Hoff, I am 27, I live in Chicago, I wrote a few columns for the old GS site, I enjoy long walks on the beach, doing magic tricks, and "lying in wait.")
