Minor Matters Man

Lately I feel the need to summon a super hero for single women. My friend's boss is giving her a terrible time at work and needs to be set straight. (I imagine by someone picking him up by the necktie). Other times there are cars to be repaired by evil mechanics, decisions about appliances, and heavy things to be lifted. I wish we could call on Minor Matters Man.

While the other super heroes are saving the world from nuclear war and vast floods, Minor Matters Man would have time for day-to-day rescues. He would probably wear glasses and a sweater vest, be on the short side, and play golf on his off-days. Tea insists that a hero needs a name conveying greater threat to danger. Personally, I think understatement is a way to keep him under wraps and handy around this city.

Please let me know if you spot him. (He doesn't fly).

So good! Great Name for a super hero. Tea may have a point, but I need him to keep a low profile so he is there for me! Continued idea on blog.

Bonnie Tyler's song I Need a Hero comes to mind. Hmmm...

Hee Hee . . . I've often dreamed of one. Rent a husband comes to mind, but super hero sounds better and free. He's just happy to help you out cause that's who he is.
