When I was a kid I thought that it would be so cool to be an Indiana Jones, Rocky, Crocodile Dundee, or something like that. I wanted to be the guy that just flat out kicked ass and always saved hot women from danger, and turned them on like crazy in the process. I think that the hero that I would want to be the most is Crocodile Dundee.

Have any of you ever gotten a chance to be a real-life hero similar to Crocodile Dundee or the like? Did you get to impress a women (or man) and make them lust after you for your heroism? I realize that the chances are low that you'd be able to do most of the stuff that these guys have done in the movies, but maybe some more modest hero stuff, like saving somebody from choking, drowning, fighting people, etc.? Did it lead to sexy stuff?

Did you have a bad day at work Turtle? It usually takes a little more to make you grumpy...

Let me guess: you had a GOOD day at work, and that's why you start spamming the forums with your drivel threads ?

Your face is a drivel thread.

That's cool, how did you get the horse to stop? Did it involve a weapon?

With a knife between my teeth I jumped onto the run away buggy and while hanging on for dear life, I cut the ropes away from the buggy and the horse sped off; as I was carrying the girl away, the buggy randomly caught fire and exploded. I didn’t even look back, I’m just that awesome.

I'm sorry, we use a lot of strong chemicals in our cleansing chemicals, sometimes I get a little loopy...

I wish that Crocodile Dundee would come into my store though.
