The protester formerly known as Sir James and now just as James
The idea that you must fight corruption (and probably) toasters in any capacity you have, particularly when they occur in government. The calling card of those opposing the toaster revolution, a cause that some say isn't really about kitchen appliances but about hostile governments, evil walrii and vikings under Norway battling for world domination.
The evil walrii, said to already have subversively conquered most of North america, and if they wanted to, Mexico, are secretly infamous for installing fake robot governments and hiding the truth about Canada.
Violent uprisings widely and inaccurately publicized as "elections" or "world summits" demonstrate the public's growing concern at the threat the walrii pose to both humanity and the eyes (they are hideous).
It has been claimed that the protester formerly known as Sir James and now just as James, is a real man, and the leader of the opposition to the toaster revolution, there is much debate on the issue and "what it all means".
Of those that believe he exists some say he is a gentleman and a scholar, others denounce him as merely being drunk.
No one knows where he was born, his age, or his favorite color. Even under torture this information would not be revealed by he or his "associates", or randomly selected members of the public. The mystery remains.
Man, idea or nonsense the name is central in the "toaster revolution" as a symbol against corruption, deceit and all things evil in government and kitchenware stores.

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!
1. The famous saying of the crime-fighting vigilante, The Shadow.
2. The introduction from The Shadow radio program "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" spoken by actor Frank Readick Jr., has earned a place in the American idiom. These words were accompanied by an ominous laugh and a musical theme, Camille Saint-Saëns' Le Rouet d'Omphale ("Omphale's Spinning Wheel", composed in 1872). At the end of each episode The Shadow reminded listeners that, "The weed of crime bears bitter fruit. Crime does not pay... The Shadow knows!"

Powers/Abilities: The Shadow possesses incredible physical abilities. He possesses astonishing reflexes and is an incredible marksman with a gun. He also has incredible muscular control and can slip his body through the bars of a prison cell like a contortionist or can actually distort and alter his very facial features at will by manipulating his facial muscles. He can also survive for hours without air and was also ambidexterous. He is regarded as highly experienced in various disciplines of hand to hand combat as well.
His greatest power is his ability to “cloud men’s minds”. He can hypnotize people instantly so that he can move as an invisible shadow. He can also hypnotize people so they forget things or to command them to perform certain acts (he once forced a criminal to write a detailed account of his past crimes).He is an expert in many different languages and is also a master ventriloquist (he can project or “throw” his voice).
He is also a master of disguise and has been known to impersonate others, even fooling their friends and family members. The Shadow is apparently an expert aircraft pilot and skilled in infiltration and information gathering techniques due to his experience as an intelligence agent.
He wields a pair of .45 pistols and employs a fleet of automobiles and aircraft in his various operations.

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.
Person 1: Tell me the truth already!
Person 2: Fine! Ahem... According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.
