Well, since there's no baseball on tonight, and none on all weekend for that matter, I think it's time to start profiling some of the superhero wannabes. Just eliminated last night was Monkey Woman, who uses high-tech gadgets which are shaped like bananas (too easy); also, she lets out a high-pitched monkey-scream (ditto). She was eliminated because she revealed she was an actress when earlier she had said she was an investor - since truthfulness is an important part of being a superhero, she was kicked off. Seems sort of bogus to me - they all seem to be actors of some sort (I'll discuss that later). This particular actress is named Mary Votova; she has an official site, with about seven thousand headshots. (Featuring: the hot bookworm! The hippie! The adventurer! The dork! The chain-smoking slut!)As should be the case for any respectable superhero, there is an Official Monkey Woman Website. Click here for the detailed, illustrated story of her origin. Apparently, in Episode 2 (which I missed - I guess I'll have to wait for the DVD set "Who Wants to be a Superhero: the Complete Series") she endured 2 wild dogs biting her for like 3 hours or something, which is awesome.
I miss you, Monkey Woman!
