Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Ya'aqov, how could you?  Me, tagged** in the super-power meme?  I'm superized.  Actually the Jewish Babysitter was the first to tag me.  I don't know why you think of me as a possible Wonder Woman.  No big deal.  Let's start with the rules:
1: Write one superpower you would like to have and what you would do with it.


2: Write why you chose that super power over everything else.


3: Tag and link lots of people, and write why you think they will have an interesting meme.


4: fix your broken links.
 
I'm back to EFL teaching, and just like I tell my students that they can do their tests in any order they want, I can do this meme in any order I want.
 
Let's start with 4.  Hmmm...?  What's it supposed to mean?  I don't know, so let's skip it.  Yes, that's what I tell my students.  Don't get all miserable and frustrated wasting your time on an impossible question.  You can always go back to it later, or just ignore it.
 
So, now I'll do #1.  OK, now I'm warning you that my idea of a "super power" is probably very different from yours.  Don't laugh.  When I first glanced at the title I thought this was a political piece, dealing with international politics and intrigue.  Once I caught on that these are real comic book concepts, not jokes masqerading as serious diplomats, I changed channels in my mind.
 

I'd like the power in Dorothy's Ruby Slippers.  I'd like to use it more broadly than Dorothy did.  I'd like that power to bring all Jews home, bring them all to our Holy Land, Eretz Yisrael.
 

About Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious of Mary Poppins fame, that's for a few of the female jbloggers, whom I will tag.  Ladies, please forgive me!
 
I will start with my dear friend and fellow blogger, Isramom.  Just look at Risa's banner, and you'll know why I have no doubt she'll do a super job.
 
Next I wish to introduce a new jblogger.  Sharon Katz of Voices fame, was at the Second JBlogger Convention.  No doubt her blog will prove popular once you know it.
 
To join my tagged friends is Lady-Light, who although is living in the galut, would prefer joining us here.  darling, if I had the power of the ruby slippers, I'd bring you here no delay!
 
Shabbat Shalom and Gmar Chatima Tova

Wow. Gimme a minute...what an honor (I think).
