Being a Superhero sucks.

Being a superhero is tiring because constantly saving people who more then likely got them selves into that situation and should get themselves out of it will take it out of you. The graphic novel "Watchmen" and the song "Superman's Song" both show the grueling life of a superhero. Rorchat is a superhero in "Watchmen", he is this epitome of a superhero doing good and not expecting anything in return. Just like they say in the Superman Song "Even though he could have smashed through any bank, In the United States, he had the strength, but he would not" Rorchat has the ability to do bad (and most certainly the mind set) he does not, although he does do some bad while doing good as he once burned a man alive in his hunt to find the kidnapper of a little girl. When society is blessed with a superhero then get used to it, and they abuse it, these superheros more then likely feel used. Rorchat is sickened by the people and the way they just look up for someone to save them for every little thing. The song mentions how when superman was stopping crimes he was "tempted to just quit and turn his back", Rorchat constantly wants to quit his trade and leave these people to fend for themselves but just like Superman in his song "He stayed in the city", kept fighting and at the end of the day "nothing to do but go on home".

Mary

Mary Mary quite contrary...but is she? According to the bible Mary is the mother of Jesus, Mary Christine Grafin Von Westphalen Zu Furstenberg is the modern day mother of Jesus, she is that perfect. Mary was manufactured in Germany, and we know the Germans make good things (just look at VW beetle, best car in the world.). She is also very talented, she is a sandwich making machine, I give them 5 stars and the way she backs her 1995 neon into a parking stall is equivalent to a Nascar drivers skills. I would say Mary along with being the modern day mother of Jesus is like a little doll for me to dress up and play with, she countlessly lets me put silly things are her head and with out and direction sticks her head of the car window and makes a fool of her self with me. I recommend Mary to anyone who is looking for a fun friend but if you have a cat allergy or a hate for them in general and/or have a sour spot for made up word I'd recommend you stray away from this particular product (her cat Caboose will scratch and kill you). All around Mary is a three thumbs up person Just don't feed her, she bites.
