Invisible Woman or Hawkman?

This American Life had a segment this week (last week? I heard it today) about superpowers. And if you had to pick between flight and invisibility, which would you chose and why?

Discuss.

Me, I'd choose flight in a heartbeat. Being able to fly would just be ultimately cool. And I wouldn't even need to go fast, either.

Invisibility is not bad, don't get me wrong. It's just not my top pick between the two of them.

I was taking my daily walk with Chatterbox and the Barbarian, and we were talking about sidhe horses (the world is full of wonders when I teach them about it) and they told me to walk on the side of the road next to the gorge. I said, "Why?"

The Barbarian said, "Because we can't fly."

"And I can?" I asked. "Where are my wings?"

"They're behind us. Don't step on my wings," the Chatterbox started singing.

"If I have any wings, they're probably big bat ones," I said, sighing.

"Silly Meera, can't see her wings," the two of them say and race on ahead.

I love little kids.

Meera -- kids are just the neatest thing.

So does this mean you'd pick flight? :)
