Very nice retell. Uncle Buck was my hero too. Common sense, understanding backed up by a Mikita. Your writing has a very enjoyable flow to it. Thanks

"Not much, Sam. He was discovered by a scout on the last leg OF HIS journey..."
"Well, ladies and gentlemen."
A few other minor mistakes lingered throughout, but all this poem needs are a few fixes.
All-in-all, this was a very interesting story. I've always like Superman, and Uncle Buck, to me, is a cult classic. Very intriguing look with combining two different, popular characters, and it was well done.
Thank you for sharing.

hustled the class into the storm shelter, - add comma
You get inside Clark's inner emotions well
great dialogue with Uncle Jonathan
I'm laughing at his worries of breaking the girl's hand or knocking her teeth out :-)
You really think I could a ball player - You really think I could be a ball player?
I very much enjoyed this :-) Brooke

The title caught my eye and I had to read the story. Was not disappointed. Very clever and very humorous. More likely what would happen than what went down in the comic books. A very enjoyable story.

Hah, well...Uncle Buck certainly didn't mince his words, now, did he? Of course he'd rather believe that Johnathon was having an extra marital affair, what with a new kid showing up all of a sudden. It would be easier to believe than Calrk being an alien from another far-off planet.

Having X-ray vision -- or simply even knowing someone who does -- would be...interesting, to say the least. Oh, the fantasies we could indulge, the things we could learn. At least Uncle Buck has Clark put it to good use, and not waste it on something foolish like looking for structural cracks in the dam, or other fool hearty things like that. The super-hearing, though, now that could be a curse, as well as a blessing at times. Sometimes, not knowing what someone has said about us is probably for the best.

So, Clark became a professional baseball player for the Metropolis Knights, all because of his Uncle Buck's love, guidance and attention. Well, I will say this, he definitely ought'a be good at it, and it certainly has to pay better than being a clerk in a newspaper mail room.

Excellent story, Lance, very imaginative and creative!

You had more than fun and it shows. Save for that buzzing in the room after Uncle has left the home base. If it is what I think, shame on you...he is after all Superman's uncle, that lady should have fainted the second after....(still humorous though)...
