Apparently I didn't list your favorite superheroes. Besides the mighty Tick, who did I leave out?
Anyway, I'm so proud of how many of you rose to the Balderdash challenge! And for all of your trouble, here are the top-secret true definitions of the words:
Piebald:
| adjective | |
| having sections or patches colored differently and usually brightly; "a jester dressed in motley"; "the painted desert"; "a particolored dress"; "a piebald horse"; "pied daisies" [syn: motley] |
Farrago:
a confused mixture; hodgepodge; medley: a farrago of doubts, fears, hopes, and wishes.

So I was right! I knew the answer, but I didn't want to offend any of the blood Bryants or their family members. Just consider me the coxcombish pied piper. (I work with rats).
Honestly, there is no superhero beyond Superman. He is a great typification of our Lord. Plus, he can see through walls! Although, I have to admit that the lille Japanese dude on Heros is pretty cool.
Also, 'How bout them Cowboys?'
Also, how 'bout them villains? Who are some of your favorite baddies? I must admit that one of mine is The Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight, again courtesy of The Tick. Another? The Soup Nazi. A last one: J.R.
J.R. Do you mean Jeremy Roenick? (asking in all sincerity)
Well, back when he was acting all whiny about the hit from Hatcher (we're talking hockey now) I might've been referring to him, but no, I'm talking about bad ol' J.R. from Big D.
Don't forget the really bad guys such as Anubis and Drako Malfoy
Despite another funny name that's not scary, Anubis does terrorize our Wii, what with his eyebrows on top of his head and all.
In the late 70s/early 80s, I loved watching Buck Rodgers. They had a freaky villain guy who looked Dracula-ish. He gave me nightmares. I saw a rerun of the show a few months ago and that villain was on the episode. I had to laugh at how ridiculous the costume was. Do you ever (as an adult) see things from your childhood and it looks so different than you remember it?
By the way, I don't think JR was being whiny about that hit from Hatcher. I mean, come on, the guy's jaw was broken in 7 places! That would give any man the right to whine (through his wired together jaws).
