To My Children:

Something has seriously gone wrong with the world today. Famine is rampant, poverty reigns, and the George W. Bush Justice League of Liberty-Freedom is triumphing over the Evil Axis of Scum and Villainy Terrorist Foundation with unparalleled destruction. Yes, the world truly seems on the brink of Armageddon.

But wait…up in the sky…it's a bird...no, it's an American F-22 distributing either food rations or half a tonne of explosives, we'll have to move closer to find out which…no, it's MEGAMAN!

Megaman can beat anyone with his eyes closed.

I used to be cynical. I used to think the world was beyond all hope. But then a little man in blue showed me the true path. This little guy has grown up in a harsh world. In his early years he was accosted and attacked by a gang of robo-thugs, but he managed to fight them off. As a testament to his bright intellect and keen sense of ingenuity, he even managed to steal his defeated attackers' weapons and turn them against his other foes.

As Megaman grew, so did the hatred that the world bore toward him. Soon, adversaries flocked from across the world to goosh the blue bomber. Wood Man, Air Man, and Bubble Man, among others, proceeded to use many underhanded tactics, including robot frogs that turn into little frogs when you kill them, to defeat Megaman for no reason besides pure hatred and envy. But Megaman, that resilient little bunch of blue bolts, managed to fight off his attackers again.

Well, the years passed. The threats only increased in size, but so did Megaman. He soon adopted the nickname "X" and became equipped with a variety of new weapons. He managed to destroy the likes of Sting Chameleon, Chill Penguin, and Sigma. He even made it home in time to marry Roll and to beget 12 little Megababies.

Friends, readers, countrymen-this is a hero. The malevolent legacy of the Twentieth century can be overcome by Megaman in the Twenty-First. I, for one, look forward to a day when Megaman, Rush, and Fliptop are no longer pestered by the likes of Dust Man, Yamato Man, Charge Man, and other, equally sinister Men. Let us embrace the optimism that Megaman brings. Let us look forward to a new, democratic world order in which Bright Man is dimmed, Spark Man is grounded, and Overdrive Ostrich is…well, his name is punishment enough. Only Megaman can bring us a world in which social ills are corrected, wealth is abundant, and Return to Castle Wolfenstein, along with other non-Megaman games are banned.

I love you Megaman!

Sincerely,
Fester

P.S. For the record, Megaman is not, nor has he ever been, a member of the communist party.
