Hey folks, Harry here... I went stark raving SPIDEY-CRAZY after watching SPIDER-MAN 2... I'm waiting till the otherside of this long holiday weekend, till I see it again... but I'm dying to take my nephew to it. He's been jumping into walls for the last two years trying to stick... He knows about the spider bite, so he tries his hardest to get bit, but the problem is... He's not real sure about understanding the phrases like "Radioactive" or "Bio-Engineered" -- so I've been reduced to claiming it was a magic spider, so he'll stop hurting the walls. Meanwhile - it was his 4th Birthday yesterday, and I had to hire SPIDER-MAN to come entertain at his party at PEDAZO CHUNK!
As he sat in that chair and stared in awe at spectacular Spider-Man... the 67 Spidey series playing in the background... well... it was bliss. Spider-Man taught him about his food groups, recycling and how to be a hero in your everyday life. He asked my crazy nephew what he wanted to be when he grew up and he answered proudly, "GOLLUM!" The stunned Spider-Man took a step back from the boy and said, "That's definitely an odd choice, but who am I to judge, I'm possessed with the power of a radioactive spider, and he's wants to be consumed by the power of the One Ring, it's all good!" Next he taught the group of celebrating children how to exercise (if only someone had taught me earlier!) and finally he taught my rambunctious nephew how to websling through the miracles of SILLY STRING!!!
Then came BALLOON ANIMALS! Heh... Yes, it is a relatively obscure fact that Spider-Man knows the ancient art of Balloon Animals... He made butterflies and other bugs, a balloon Spider-Man and swords... lots of swords... A couple of crowns and 2 Weiner Dogs. Oh... and a kitty cat with the longest tail ever! By the time he was done, this rather stocky Spider-Man... whose face will forever be shrouded in mystery had won all of our hearts!
If you're in Austin and want to hire a great SPIDER-MAN show for your little ones, I recommend THREE RING SERVICE - just look em up in the phone book. He's outstanding! MEANWHILE...
