I was never that much into Spiderman, but then I was never as dark as Batman or his ilk.
The comic book superhero is an interesting mythology, especially in light of the pervasive influence it has had across our culture. Millions of kids growing up wishing they could be something that was impossible, rather than dreaming of that which was just slightly out of reach.
Kinda reminds you of the cornucopia of Greek or Roman gods. People were free to worship which ever god they liked best or would help them the most. Mythology still seems to serve the same purpose, eh? ;-)

This really begs the question of how bad do you want to see the rest of the world, not to mention how bad do you want the rest of the world to see you?

With an iPhone, a pocketful of memory chips & credit cards, it would be easy to be virtually anywhere, whilst you actually were virtually anywhere. We should keep an eye on this site! ;-)

Well, the boy, er, man, has gone & done it now! He's run off to Europe with his girlfriend.
Right now, I believe they are in Germany, trying to have fun without his old man!
Check their blog out from time to time & see what they're up to.
In the meantime, I'll get back to my political rantings & ravings!

A Hit Woman This Time

Interior Official Steps Down Over Rules Violation - New York Times: "WASHINGTON, May 1 %u2014 A deputy assistant secretary at the Interior Department resigned Monday, a month after the department%u2019s inspector general issued a stinging report that said she violated federal rules by giving industry lobbyists internal agency documents and rode roughshod over agency scientists. The resignation came about a week before a House committee was set to hold hearings on political interference with biologists, and the same day that Senator Ron Wyden, Democrat of Oregon, wrote Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne demanding that he take action to address the concerns about the official, Julie A. MacDonald, who was overseeing the Fish and Wildlife Service."

Another scary thing about this is the lack of official inquiry or notification.

Fighting Walter Reed After Fighting the War - washingtonpost.com
This will be the first post calling attention to the hatchet men who have been brought in by HeBeGeeBee2 & his gang of 40 thieves.
The recent scandals at Walter Reed are just the tip of the iceberg.
We'll look across the administration & see under-funding, lack of leadership & occassionally outright criminal behavior as the hallmarks of the hatchet men brought in to dismantle America, hacking away at scores of branches of the government at once.
But for now, we'll just note the sad stories of our troops coming back home, wounded, tortured, disabled & depleted, while the government who sent them there, studiously ignores them as they come back!
