I had an epiphany the other day.

That’s scary.

Why is that scary?

I don’t know, I mean how often do you hear that line followed by something cute and cuddly?

Well don’t worry.

All right, then what was this epiphany that you speak of?

I think we should each do more to help random people.

Charity giving? That was your epiphany?

No, I mean yes, but no. I meant something more… physical.

Uhm.

You know, getting out there and making a difference.

So you want to join the Guardian Angels now?

No!

but you said…

Maybe not together, but each of us, and no funny red hats.

Oh god…

What?

You had a Come to Batman moment.

I had a what?

You know how some people have a come to Jesus moment where they feel that they’ve seen some big shining reason to follow Christianity?

So you think I just had a big revelation that I need to fight crime in the streets.

Uhm, isn’t that kinda what you were just saying?

Well, I mean, I guess, kinda. But not Batman. That might be a bit rough.

Might be. See. You totally had a Come to Batman moment.

Maybe I did, then.

That won’t end well.

And why not?

Well, besides vigilantes being illegal, you not being a great fighter and not looking good in a cape? No reason.

I’d look fine in a cape.

That’s your defense? I list reasons and you pick… the cape.

I’m just saying…

That you’re crazy. Sure. Listen, you want to help people, join the Police reservists or something. A neighborhood watch.

Think we could get a signal light to announce when we’re needed?

Batman!

Kidding!

Really?

You have to admit, a signal light would be cool.

Mmm. I’ll be sure to tape it when you show up on the news.

Yeah!

Arrested for being a lunatic.

Bah!
