HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WONDER WOMAN!

If you are a child of the 1970s like me, you may recall some of the beautiful women of that time. Some of the guys may have preferred skating champion Dorothy Hamill, disco diva Donna Summer, or the late Farrah Fawcett. But for my money, the sex siren of that era was Lynda Carter, the one who brought Wonder Woman to life. When I saw Diana Prince spin around and transform herself into the famous Amazon woman, I reached puberty at the ripe old age of eight. I mention this because today is Lynda Carter's birthday. I won't reveal her actual age, but let's just say she might be a member of AARP now. Jokes aside, she still looks amazing. All of us guys could go wild over Wonder Woman's outer beauty, but we need to look deeper into her inner beauty.

I want to start with her two silver bracelets and matching tiara, each donning a red star, which is significant for a special reason. Whenever an American mother sends her son off to war, she will have a flag with a blue star draped on her front door. The star signifies the son's service to our country. Likewise, the red star lets everybody know that Wonder Woman serves America because that's her uniform. She has the job of defending America just like our brave soldiers
do in fighting wars.

Then there are her knee-high red boots with those high heels. I can't figure out how she could run around in those things. Men wouldn't look good in those during combat. They look very uncomfortable and their legs are too hairy. But Wonder Wonder could pull it off because of who she is. As Nancy Sinatra once sang: 'These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do. 'Cause one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you.' She must've had Wonder Woman in mind. The rest of her uniform displays true American symbolism. Her star-spangled shorts assure us that she is ready to defend the land of the free and the home of the brave. Her lassoo - and, no, it's not a whip like Indiana Jones would carry - is a true American assessory in the tradition of the long-lost era of the western cowboy.

Finally, there's the piece de resistance, the low-cut and strapless corset. Wonder Woman looks beautiful in it, but let's remember the symbol that's on it. We all know the silver American eagle with its wings spread out while perched along her (I must be careful here) bosoms. The eagle is the American symbol of freedom. On the back of the one-dollar bill, the eagle carries 13 arrows in one talon and the olive branch with 13 leaves on the other. The arrows show America's willingness to fight against her enemies; the olive branch symbolizes America's ability to extend peace to her allies. Wonder Woman always stands for peace, but don't you dare provoke her. We can all admire her outer beauty. If Wonder Woman were eye candy, our corneas would be loaded with cavities. But her outer beauty is complete only when she has her inner beauty intact. They go hand-in-hand. Now that's American.

So happy birthday, Lynda Carter. You truly are a wonderful woman. If you want to see pictures of Wonder Woman, log on to http://www.comicbookhotties.com/ and scroll to Lynda Carter. Her Web

And in case you're curious, Wonder Woman is secretly married to Superman. You must admit they make a cute couple. But don't tell Lois Lane. It would hurt her feelings.
