A new era...

I have heard it said that all superheroes have an origin story — a tale of how they came to pass — that gives them cause and sufficient drive to lead a double life. An existence of duplicity in the pursuit of honesty and truth. We see them as torn between two worlds: the light and the dark.

I have no powers beyond my own determination; No extraordinary sense beyond my own moral compass and no problem recognizing that, in most cases, the pen is mightier than the sword.

But I, too, am bisected. I know what is right and what is wrong, and this is my curse. When bad grammar runs rampant ... I am there.
