    I saw this amazing story on TV right before I left for work this morning. I'm still astounded by the whole thing...

    Power Ranger to the Rescue

    One courageous boy in North Carolina thwarted thieves with his Power Ranger costume. Four-year-old Stevie Long snuck away while thieves were robbing his family, and slipped into his "Red Ranger" costume. Stevie reappeared all suited up and armed with a plastic sword, ready to save his family. Although the thieves got away with some cash and credit cards, they also had plans to take Steve’s mother to an ATM to empty her bank account. Luckily, the robbers abandoned that idea once they saw little Stevie in full garb.

    “I scared the bad guys!” the four-year-old proudly boasted, fully believing he morphed into the “Red Ranger.” Go Red Ranger!

    - I watched the reporter interview little Stevie and I'm telling you...the Marines are looking for guys like this. He demonstrated for the camera how he charged the armed robbers who were about to take his mother away, waving his little plastic sword like a demon. When the reporter asked him how he had done it, he looked at her like she was retarded and said simply, "I'm the Wed Wane-ger."

    How stupid can those reporters be? Didn't she understand? He really DID morph into the Red Ranger! Those bad guys didn't know who they were dealing with! If they come back, he'll give em more of the same!

    I hope Charlie saw this. I don't care if he's only four years-old. We need linebackers!
