Crystaleers, Readers and others, it isn't often that I am
surprised. When you are blessed with the gift of sight, it's
hard to be. True, I've had my share of cosmic pies in the
face and getting caught over a blowy subway grate pantieless.
You know, that sort of thing. But nothing prepared me for
the wonder, the majesty, the, well, oddness of the Taytons.
I found Mrs. Tayton a bit rude, frankly and what a knack she
has for the dirty talk. Must be a Scorpio. Mr. Tayton was
a robust type fellow. The two clearly have a psychic-sexual
connection, which must be difficult to consummate fully since
he wears his mask all the time (he's a superhero, too, you
see). I wonder how that works exactly. I'll have to put that
one out to the universe to solve. There's also a racial issue
going down between them that I will have to give serious thought
to before I comment on.
Lila Tayton, Rich Tayton's mother, tells it like it is (even though I find her much too preoccupied with her son's manliness).
After a good bit of time spent discussing Rich's manliness
- which I thought odd that a mother would take such a deep
interest in - Mrs. Tayton stepped me through some of Rich
and Billy's milestones. What a solar-sized gift it must have
been for them to receive their calling at such a young age.
Must have really given them a great sense of who they were
and what masks to select. Judging from their prom picture,
these guys certainly seem to like a lot of woman (i.e. Missy
Pendleworth). A whole lot of woman. That's all I will say.
I wonder if she's any relation to the Marvin Pendleworth we
heard so much about from our white trash friend we met in
the bar; you know, the one who bitched and moaned about her
life the whole time.
An on-site hero comes home from work (he works construction). Apparently Tom Tayton, Best Man's father, is also a superhero.
Tom Tayton does have his own charm and strikes me as a hard
worker, though at what, I'm not sure. He seems to have taken
the same type of interest in helping people that Captain Curtis
accused Rich and Billy of not legitimately having. I think
if Captain Curtis could meet Mr. Tayton, he might have a rethink.
Then again, he might try and wrestle Mr. Tayton to the ground.
I'm not one for riddles. It's not that I'm lacking in the
cognitive abilities to process them - no, I'm of almost Mensa
intelligence. Rather, I prefer to apply my energy, or qi if
you are Chinese (and welcome China, if you are now on-line.
Did you get my telepathic messages? Let me know.) to less
pedantic pursuits. But Mr. Tayton insisted and I knew I that
if I wanted to know where the "Terrific Two" actually cohabited,
I had to play. So I put my nebular thinking cap on, aligned
my masculine energy to "plug in" to this side of myself and
behold, I figured that riddle out in no time. It was actually
fairly easy, but I didn't tell Mr. Tayton that. Apparently,
he's an on-site hero for a construction company (turns out
he saved the boss's son from a horrible death when a girder
hit him and some others 20 stories up).
So, like I said, we found out where the "Terrific Two" actually
live. Mark David said "we should just fucking go over there,
bang on the door and get it over with". I said judging from
his Mom's response to this direct route, we probably don't
want to engage Billy in this way. So we will wait and give
the Terrific Two a chance to come to us. We must begin at
the material plane to transcend it.

Four-year-old Billy Robbins in mask and costume (already). We found this photo and others in a box Mrs. Robbins gave to us
Mrs. Tayton was also obliging in giving us shots of Buddy Boy
I might agree with Mrs. Tayton. He does look so cute in that bow tie. This is Rich Tayton aged 12.
This is my favorite photo by far
"Hot to trot, uh? On like Donkey Kong." So said Mrs. Lila Tayton (Rich's Mom) when she gave me this picture, my first good glimpse of the "Terrific Two".
