Public Service Announcement

A friend of my wife has taken on some part time seasonal work. She gets paid $10 an hour to do peoples' tax returns at H&R Block. She has no accountancy qualifications whatsoever.

You might be better off yourself with pen & paper at home.

Latest from the CIA

If you want to know what's going on, there's nobody better placed to tell you than the CIA

It's not all hanging the enemies of the state upside down for years and blasting them with the latest Metallica album, and firing remote controlled missiles at people. With a budget in the billions of dollars, the CIA is the most fearsomely effective intelligence gathering machine the world has ever seen. For example, in December 1991 they were telling the president of the grave risk posed by the Soviet Union and recommending the immediate internment of anybody whose name ended in '-vich', or who looked 'shifty'.

So now they are warning CIA warns Barack Obama that British terrorists are the biggest threat to the US

This is bad news for a British friend of mine, Nigel Clutterbuck, who picked now of all times to change his name to Abdulaziz Bin Derka Derka Allah Akbar Abu Jihad.
