Elaborate.

In my typical fashion, I got through the entire painful process (to the point where I had a slot at Quantico) but turned down the job at the last minute because I had gotten a higher-paying job that didn't require me to relocate.

Worst part of the process was having to go through a second polygraph session because they didn't believe my responses to past drug use & having been contacted by another country's intelligence service :D

Some days I wish I had taken the job, other days I'm glad I didn't :mellow:

I have no desire to meet anyone. I despise idiotic small talk, meeting in bars or having my organs stolen.

Have you been there?  Cleveland is nasty.


I remember 10-12 years ago when the city was supposedly reviving. Then plop, right back into the shitter.

Oh please.  Cleveland is still a big city with nice hotels, restaurants, bars, sporting events, and cultural activities.

Have you been there?  Cleveland is nasty.

QuoteIt a really crappy business trip when you have to go to a place that has none of those amenities.

Like the Yukon?  :P

Like some communities in Yukon?  Yes.  Even without having visited Cleveland I can tell you a trip there is nicer than a trip to Ross River or Beaver Creek, Yukon.

Yeah, but involving the less interesting kind of alien.  I was fast-tracked due to the fact that I speak Spanish & have an International Relations degree.

Don't forget your minesweeper.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely - lay your life before him.

Ed isn't exactly a young man.  Moreover, if he can survive living in Ohio, where armed blacks gangs roam the streets in search of whites to murder, some backwoods camp full of second-rate Scandinavians isn't going to pose much of a problem.  And the spoken English in Copenhagen will probably be superior to Ohio, allowing for an ease of communication that should be most refreshing.

One possible danger:  MB might be a Mormon (his taking of a child bride suggests this).  He might get mixed up with a local child and marry her too, becoming one of those polygamous Mormon guys that the governments loves to shoot at.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.
