Sleep Your Way to the Top

Napping Gives You Power

So, if you put this all together, what do you get?  Power.  The power and authority to act and think as well as anyone else, or better.  The power of napping.

As I've already mentioned, two of the most powerful men of the 20th century were nappers.  But, aside from those guys, I've often wondered, "If Superman were real, would he be a napper?" 

Most people might say no, because he probably doesn't need to sleep at all, but even the Man of Steel has at least one weakness and, as importantly, he has many strengths.  So, my thinking is, because he has such great mental acuity and sharp understanding of his physicality, he must understand the benefits of napping and he would participate fully. 

My bet is that right before Clark Kent would change into Superman, he would nod off for a split, Super-second.  Then, after taking his Superpowered Super power nap, he would have extra-Super energy to go and bust some thug butt.

Can I mention just one thing about Metropolis?  I feel like all optometrists in that fair city (and that city could certainly teach a lesson in how to run a bright and cheerful big comic book city to Batman's Gotham) should have their licenses revoked. 

The only guy in Metropolis who doesn't need glasses is the only guy who has them.  He can see through just about anything and yet he's the one sporting the specs while everyone else who must have a severe case of some sort of far or near sightedness because they can't even see beyond Clark's glasses to notice that he looks exactly like Superman - all of those people are walking around without any optical assistance. 

Unless they are all wearing contact lenses but then those are clearly the wrong prescription.  It's amazing that the whole darn greater metropolitan Metropolis area isn't full of people walking around with big huge bruises on their foreheads from banging into walls all the time. "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't see you there ma'am," you would expect to hear them say after leaving a dent in a door jam. 

But, if there were good optometrists in Metropolis then Clark might have to switch from wearing glasses to wearing a funny nose and glasses and then he'd have absolutely no chance at getting Lois to pay much attention to him now would he?
