... a lawyer. That is some pointed rhetoric and, more importantly, outlines a logical procession that Joe Average can understand. "What would you do if X tomorrow?" should never throw you off your game if X is something at least theoretically possible and which you are, in theory, actively working for. No, I'm not getting back into political punditry. I promise. No, really! Posted...

... civil and soon. Rod Dreher had an interesting comment on the fact that the infighting is leaving Joe Average Conservative a bit out in the cold . There are some exaggerations in what he quotes and says, but I think there is something to the central idea. Most people have little patience for this posturing, preening and deciding who is, and is not, “genuine.” They just want a party that can...

... to bore us to death with the "eurosceptic" argument, making it so dull and deadly that Joe Average simply walks away. There is nothing, for instance, at least in the blurb, about immigration from the EU, common asylum policies and other such sensitive issues, which would spark a real debate.

... identity and, in the bargain, a clever juxtaposition of the weird world of superheroes and us average citizens. In some ways, you feel like you can’t cross a line with Spider-Man. Peter Parker is as average as you can get. He’s forever fighting for his well-earned cash from The Man, J. Jonah Jameson. Who can’t relate to that? And, as Spider-Man, the guy gets no respect. What’s not...
