Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt!
Walk and Talk like a Canajun!!
More than a little askew. If anyone is interested, here's a link to the real story. Be forewarned: it's at cia.gov, so you may want to transfer all your porn to a thumb drive first.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
That's where I go to get my porn.

Well, sure, but you know where they get that porn, right? Right.

Oh, and lest I forget:
(You'll get the joke once you've seen the movie)Argo fuck yourself!

What is the significance of Canada?
Give a man a fish, and he will eat it. Teach a man to fish and he will spend lots of money on tackle...
Did you see the movie? For starters, did you believe the part where the Iranian housekeeper simply kept her mouth shut with no coercion or incentives?
Back bacon and maple syrup. Also, a nice cold Okanagan hard cider, eh?
More specific to this thread, however, check out the real Argo story.

I read the story on the CIA site and was impressed with the accuracy of the story......ambassador Ken Taylor had for years denied he was working for the CIA up until a few years ago he let the cat out of the bag and admitted it after his oath to secrecy expired and allowed that part of it to be admitted....
......and a cold Okanagan hard apple or peach Cider can't be beat! :yum:

That's no surprise seeing how the article was written by Antonio Mendez—the guy Ben Affleck's character in the movie was based on.
And Mendez made it very clear that Taylor and the Canadian government in general were crucial to pulling this stunt off.......ambassador Ken Taylor had for years denied he was working for the CIA up until a few years ago he let the cat out of the bag and admitted it after his oath to secrecy expired and allowed that part of it to be admitted....
No argument there, although there's a cider that's recently come on the market locally that's pretty good too.......and a cold Okanagan hard apple or peach Cider can't be beat! :yum:
