Ask a silly question...

I had to post this - it made me laugh.

I'm currently listening to commentary on the Australia v New Zealand Test match (that's cricket to the uninitiated) on internet radio, which in itself is mildly amusing, given my geographical position and national allegiance.

Anyway, New Zealand is not doing very well, and one of the commentators remarked that their batsmen would need to develop superpowers if they were going to win.

He then posed his co-commentator the question: "If someone offered you a superpower, what would it be?"

A few seconds thought, then the answer:

"Russia."
