 Buffalo has been in the news quite a bit lately. The blizzard has been a history making event blasting the area with record amounts of snow resulting in stories of heroism and tragedy.

You just either have to believe your dad can beat up Billy's dad or vice versa because the odds of getting a boxing match between the two are pretty low. And that's beside the point anyway. Kids hero worship of their parents and various other adults in their life is normal and part of what makes them feel significant to their peers. But imagine actually having a superhero, like Superman, be related to you and getting in trouble with your teacher for "lying about it" despite the truth of the claim. Enter actor Henry Cavill's nephew Thomas who was proudly proclaiming that his uncle was indeed Superman to all who would listen. Cavill, who recounted the hilarious tale on various TV programs, including the Tonight Show said to Leno, "Keep in mind Thomas has got a grea...
