Weekly Intelligence Briefing

 

Seizin greetings!

 

(Note: Cleared readers only, please.)

Most government secrets are like theatrical flash powder: they only cause noise if confined, they only injure those who try to hold onto them, and once they blow up everybody says ‘That was it?!’

● When you say it has the earmarks of a CIA operation, you’re looking way too high.

● One if by land, two if by sea, n/√(1 – vē/cē) if by gravitational wormhole.

● O how the mighty pretend for accounting purposes to have fallen.

Whenever I hear the word couture, I reach for my pullover.

Executive Intelligence Summary

Are we anywhere but here yet?

At CIA we’re committed to observing best practices. We know where best practices go and what they do 24/7.

● Sophisticated spy hardware and psychological analysis models notwithstanding, real-world agent recruitment is still about old-fashioned legwork. Get the right pair of legs working on them, and you’ll recruit the target every time.

● Holding government accountable: empowering.

Holding government accounts receivable: priceless.

● Don’t know much about that Sam Cooke song.

● The future of our society will be determined by how we choose between a worldview based on reason, objectivity and tolerance, and one marked by extremism and lies. 

Here’s hoping we choose in a cool, slightly edgy kind of way.

If life gives you limerence, ask for lemons instead.

December in Russia. As always, Edward remains snowed in.

● The hills were alive with the sound of music. … Too alive. – Ops report

The lovelier a woman’s name, the more beautiful the song written about her. For example: Sara, Rhiannon, Michelle, and of course, Wildthing.

December 12th is International Day of Neutrality. It could have been another date, but nobody had a preference one way or the other.

If you dont believe in the cultural power of mythos, drop a few into a large bottle of Diet Coke.

My search for meaning is now officially a recovery operation.
