Occasionally, a street singer shows up to croak awful ballads about Spidey's exploits, and poor Auntie can't even get a toaster premium, much less a desperately needed loan, from her bank...

The winning smile of Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger was that of a man who knew he'd outfought, outthought and outstared soccer's meanest, smartest double-bluff artist.
