Matty! Luv it!

When discussing kooky CIA shenanigans, never forget the drunken yet reliable codgerly buffoon 'curveball'.

(One would think a freshman agent saw his secret identity name and thought 'maybe not so fast...' but not our great gubbamint!)

Hi, Jess! Thanks for being the first commenter. Still ironing out the bugs, as the website is asking me to moderate all comments, which is annoying. I'd rather just let folks post and erase the poopyhead stuff, should it arise, much as is the case over on Princess Sparkle Pony.

You're right, "Curveball" was just too ambiguous. If they had called him "Knuckleball" or "Hit by Pitch", I'm sure wiser heads would have prevailed.

Funny your first post concerns "Rome". I am wondering if the US is going the way of Rome in less than 100 years.

You make a valid point, Juanuchis! This worldwide empire supported by the greatest military force ever seen is trickier than it looks. You'd think the British could give us a few pointers, but I think they're still a little down in the mouth about how badly it ended.
