...requires him to grapple with death and justice on a daily basis, precepts that are often philosophically opposed. He suffers everything that a normal man suffers - pangs of conscience, doubts in the human capacity for good, and the occasional urinary tract infection. (When he scrambles into the bathroom, doubled over and grimacing at the excruciating effort of relieving himself - well, the audience feels his pain.) Duncan, in his breakout role (after several supporting roles in films like Armageddon), succeeds in winning over the sympathies of the audience with an inspiring performance.

And because the range of this thing is supposed to be more than 150 ft., I would Web-surf wire free while sipping a beer in the Irish pub across the street from my apartment...
