Friday on Howell & Yarbrough, we talked about super powers; If you could have any super power, what would it be and why?
LISTEN TO THE PODCAST FROM THE SUPER POWER SHOW
Catherine chose healing power. Bob chose the ability to never require sleep, and Eric chose teleportation. We had some other great ideas from listeners as well:
- mind control – except the power to alter attitudes and moods
- to gain the abilities of the last person you touched (until you touch someone else)
- flying
- shape-shifting
- to be able to breathe under water
- telekinesis (to move things with your mind)
- restorative power – similar to healing except with objects- to be able to restore something to its most perfect form
- time travel
- time manipulation (perhaps the ability to stop time)
- Ability to see the future one day ahead
- Santa Claus- one listener wants the power to be Santa Claus to travel the world distributing gifts on Christmas Eve
- unlimited knowledge
- ability to communicate with women (may or may not be facetious)
- ability to inflict severe diarrhea on anyone at any time
- power of persuasion (basically another form of mind control)
- power to give hope to anyone
- Someone chose all of Superman’s strength with Batman’s detective skill and Professor X mind control (however, we would make them pick just one)
- Long Shot- to have miraculous luck as long as they’re working altruistically
-
to be as pretty as Bob (handsomeness would blind all enemies, radio voice would pierce their souls, and I would have mind control over anyone that was attracted to me. Weakness would be karaoke)
No one chose invisibility or super strength
Who knew there was a wiki page on super powers?
