I was a big Green Lantern fan when I was a kid. It may have been my favorite comic book, and I used to sneak into my brother's room and read every issue he got. I'm a grownup now, more or less, but sometimes those comic book heroes still get to me. At Comic Con last week, this wonderful thing happened when a young lad asked Ryan Reynolds -- who will play Hal Jordan in the upcoming movie - about the Green Lantern oath: I still know that oath by memory. And you know what? In general, it's a pretty good motto for life, too.
