accentuate the positive

So, remember that post on mercenaries ("private security contractors" or whatever we are calling them these days) that I never wrote? Well, the bloke who wrote the book whose reading I was at* was on the Daily Show last week. Watch him and John have a chat here.

Turns out the bloke has a few stories that he repeats--Blackwater as the "Praetorian guard", his tale of seeing BW folks in New Orleans and some others. Oh, dear boy, you look good and the scruffy beard is very emo but repeating most of your tales at various gigs isn't very helpful. It just makes one wonder: It's a thick book that you've written. Didn't more stuff happen that you can tell us about?



* did yous follow that? I nearly didn't.
