If you ever feel like you just have too many functioning brain cells in your head, you could always join the Family Research Council. You’ll feel much better afterwards. I promise.

Jumping back into the trivia: Warren Beatty, Robert Redford, and Nick Nolte.

I've read that James Caan was asked to play Supe. (Seems as big a stretch as, say, Nic Cage. I mean, I like Cage, who was supposed to star in Superman film a few years ago, but he's all wrong for the part.) And I'm pretty sure Shayera is right about Redford. Dunno No. 3, though. I just hope it wasn't Travolta.

Re: the "excuse me" belt.
A number of years ago, I was walking down the street in NYC, and a woman crashes into my left side. A moment later, she does it again.
Then she yells at me: "EXCUSE ME. I am TRYIHG to TURH here."
This was a "normal" looking woman, not a crazy homeless person.
Really--it didn't cross her mind to slow down slightly and go behind me. I was speechless.
