QotD: Flight or Invisiblity?
If you could pick between the superpowers of flight or invisibility, which would you choose?

Flight, hands down. Although there have been countless moments in my life when I've wished I could simply become invisible to escape embarrassing and awkward situations, overall I think I'd have access to entirely too much information that I really don't need if I had the power to become invisible. Sometimes you just don't want to know.
It's strange, though...I've always had vivid dreams, and when I was younger, I always was able to fly in them. Not Superman-type, arms-stretched-out flying...the action was much more like swimming underwater. I don't recall when exactly I lost the ability to fly in my dreams. Perhaps it's just something that happens with age...the whole motif of being "tied down" by the responsibilities that come with age presents quite a bit of irony with the loss of this ability.
