I remembered Mr Mediocre not from Dave Barry’s column, but from his book Claw Your Way to the Top. Interesting to see how the idea progressed.

I went down the Dave Barry rabbit hole and learned he had a major movie about bombs on planes *and* a book called Dave Barry Hits Below the Beltway: A Vicious and Unprovoked Attack on Our Most Cherished Political Institutions scheduled for release in 2001. Timing isn’t nothing!
