A few miles from the tail end of Garden State Parkway South, in an upstairs corner of Victoria and Steve Zelenak's Cape May home, a rat dangles from a ceiling fan.
This is no ordinary rat -- he is Splinter, sensei and mentor to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. And he is not alone. The entire two-toed crew -- Raphael, Michelangelo, Donatello and Leonardo -- fill the space in the form of action figures, plush dolls and comic books. But that's not all -- the turtles' green, masked mugs are splashed across tubes of toothpaste, packs of bubblegum and boxes of gelatin dessert mix.
You see, Victoria and Steve's son, Jonathan, is the ultimate ninja turtles fanboy.
Yet this explosion of "turtle power" is all too organized to be the domain of a child. That's probably because Jonathan Zelenak is 31.
