Did anyone else have a “Super Hero” alter ego as a kid? My siblings and I, born within five years of each other and so our own built-in-the-family playmates, had a repertoire of several each, which we alternately played with and off each other. Some had costumes, such as Stupendous Man with capes and all, and others were entirely imagination. The good OL’ days.

I don’t think you’d want Stupendous Man back to write another test, Calvin. I doubt he studied any more than you did.

Winning a moral victory, depends entirely on your morals.

That’s what happens when you let your alter ego run your life.
I’m not going to say ‘I told you so’ I’m not that sort of person.

I can see why Calvin flunked since Stupendous Man gave history answers on a math test!!!!! ;-)

@nazzofoggenmach,“obviously a man of principal.”That’s why Miss Wormwood keeps sending him there.He’s certainly not a man of principle.
