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.

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

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.
