Russian Spies Surprisingly Un-spylike
“Alleged Russian spy ring members led typical American lives”. So goes the headline from Los Angeles Times.
Richard and Cynthia Murphy grew lettuce in a backyard garden, walked their daughters to the school bus each morning, and swapped Christmas cards with neighbors who had moved to Texas.
Their modest three-bedroom house sported maroon shutters and a wrap-around porch, and sat on a winding street in a well-heeled suburb across from Manhattan. They drove a green Honda Civic. (LA Times)
This is indeed a shocking revelation. In all the movies I’ve seen the bad guys (in this case spies) have faces with jagged scars and unnecessarily heavy accents. They stomp on kittens and shoot at little birds as they walk down the street. I certainly wouldn’t expect World-class spies to blend into the population of the country they were spying on.








Also they have odd minions, usually from misterious underdeveloped countries.
Mentalgen?
What you did there, I see it.
My name is Michael Westen, and I used to be a spy, until my Macbook refused to send messages to my handlers. So when I called the Mac helpdesk in Russia, they called the government, and I had to run to Miami, where I mimiced my favorite show “Kung Fu” by walking the town and helping people.
But the moment I can return to Russia, I’m gonna kill that SOB that turned me in ;P
I could totally hear Jeffrey Donovan’s voice for that. :)
Damn!!! Now how are we gonna find them?
Spy Check with flamethrowers? Works for me all the time…
