Smallville and more

So last night was the season finale for Smallville. And what a show it was. Lex develops Kryptonian powers thans to Milton Fine and shares them with Lana. Lana accepts Lex for who he is which is rather ironic especially when Clark finds out considering that is what Clark was always afraid to do in the first place. Clark is given a dagger to kill the "vessel" that Zod needed to return from the vortex. When Clark discovers that that vessel is Lex, he has a tough decision to make. Does he kill his former best friend who is dating his former love to save the world, or does he spare his life because he is not a killer? Lionel had a great line when talking to Clark about this situation. He said, "The real test of a hero is knowing when the greater good will be served by an evil act." Is it ok to take one life to save the rest of the world? Once Fine begins the spread of the virus, Clark meets Chloe in Metropolis where mass rioting is occuring. This is where Clark finally gets some action. Before he leaves to meet Lex, Chloe says she might not ever see him again, and gives him a big fat kiss. YES!! I think I had been waiting all season to see that. The only thing better would have been to see him and Lois kissing. But there is just something about a woman who stands behind her hero and wishes him well. The scene between Lex and Clark was a little disappointing as I was hoping there would be more fighting between them. However, Zod is released into Lex when Clark throws the dagger at Fine and hits him and thus releases Zod. The show ends with Clark being stuck in a vortex, Lionel and Chloe being attacked in Metropolis, Lois and Martha Kent passing out on a hijacked plane heading for who knows where, and Lex, aka Zod, and Lana making out overlooking Metropolis destroying itself. Next season looks to be an exciting one as almost every character is in limbo as well as the world with Clark stuck in a vortex unable to protect them all.

There's not much to say about softball last night other than the fact that my team gets easily rattled. It seems as though if we get down by just a little bit, then everybody starts to panic. It seems as though there is only me and one other guy that are able to keep our cool under adverse conditions. I'm trying to help these guys out by using some of the Sports Pschology stuff I learned in school, but it's hard to try to keep a whole team cool. Oh well. I'm heading to the ATL this weekend to see the Braves vs. Nationals tonight and then take in Six Flags tomorrow. I'll be sure to report about that on Monday. Hope everyone has a good weekend and Happy Mother's Day.
