Who says small town life is boring?




My friend in Ellington, CT (population...well, I'm not exactly sure, but not too many) send me an article from his local paper...

Apparently several people have spotted Batman jogging around town.

Being a former runner myself, I know runners can be weird people...but this takes the cake, no?

My question: wouldn't it get hot under that cape?

PS Update!!! See the new pic for a glimpse of the Ellington Batman! (Thanks, Mike D!)

Ha! My son had that very costume..and when he grew out of it..he didn't care. For a few years he'd still put it on--stitches pulling out and all..just to walk around the house. Luckily he grew out of that :)

Well, the treadmill in the BatCave is broken, and Costco won't take it back. My employer needs to stay fit to fight crime.

Mr Wayne tried rollerblading, but people laughed. He tried synchronized swimming, but the Batsuit gets very heavy when it is wet. Power walking got the poor guy beaten up by a group of small children. Jogging is the last resort.

He is always complaining of the old days when the crime-inals were in better shape and he could get a good workout chasing them.

I need to serve Mr. Wayne his afternoon snack of fried chicken feet and pork rinds now.

I am a little disappointed. That is the very town where I had my next...okay, first...crime spree planned. I was going to wear a neon green costume with a bunch of question marks on it, leave clues before I got there and do it all in rhyme. Now, with the Batman there I must look elsewhere. This is bad news indeed.
