Superhero for a day.
Erik, who is living with liver cancer, has always wanted to be a superhero. On Thursday, the regional chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation granted him that wish with an elaborate event that involved hundreds of volunteers in Bellevue and Seattle.
Erik got into his red-and-blue superhero costume, and called on the powers of Moonshine Maid, who owns a DeLorean sports car. For good measure, more than 20 motorcycle officers from the Bellevue Police Department and King County and Snohomish sheriff's offices escorted Electron Boy to Seattle.

Was someone here looking for an almond cookie recipe recently?

My browser doesn't want me to see the pictures of Electron Boy. Woe.
You might be able to get at the pictures starting here: [link]
That was so cool that they arranged villains for him to fight, and people to rescue.
Thank you! That was so awesome.
Awww, that made my allergies act up. That's so cute! I would have totally participated.
My favorite pic was
the one with Dr. Dark and the IV labeled "EVIL"
(cause it's too funny to spoil)
Not sure if I'd want to see the movie described in this xkcd: Outbreak
Aww, Electron Boy is awesome.
There's an inch of snow on the ground outside. It's still snowing.
Happy May Day's Eve.
