We’re Good For Something
The “Book”

It’s not quite magic but seems to be an interesting
read. Featured in the St. Petersburg Times of Russia, is a review of a
new book looking into the history of the CIA/KGB relationship. You
learn about how we and they (depending on where you are reading this)
developed snooping and spying techniques.

The book is promised to
be a page-turner and presumably as you turn those pages you would read
stuff on each page. I was never sure what that term meant.

One
of the neat aspects of the book, though, is the detail it provides.
Apparently the CIA would consult “magicians.” (I don’t know why that
has to be in quotes but it was in the review and so it must have some
special meaning; like she’s really “nice” or he’s a “lawyer.”)

There were some “magicians” who helped the CIA learn the “art of
deception.” Again, I have no idea why that’s in quotes. It’s not bad to
be a “magician” or to teach the “art of deception.” Is it?

While we may be in “quotes,” we at least ranked high enough to be
useful to something that would likely never be admitted as happening.
So the “art of deception” we “magicians” taught, must have been pretty
“good.”

That makes me “happy.”
