"Mr. President, there's someone to see you from Foggy Bottom..."
"Saggy bottom", I answered. "Perhaps some crunches are in order"
"No Mr. President, I mean the CIA. He's here with Rahm"
"Well show them in."
It was good to see Rahm. He's so busy running the country that I don't get to see him as much as I used to. He strode in confidently with a thoroughly non-descript man. Probably in his forties. He could have been anyone.
Rahm said "We have an important briefing for you."
The CIA Guy answered "Do we? I haven't decided yet."
"He has met Drooz" answered Rahm with a shrug.
CIA guy was not impressed. "You mean the greys? An alien race hell bent on mankind's destruction? That doesn’t even make it through the junk mail filter on my blackberry. I ignore scarier things than that everyday."
"Look, you are bound by law to tell him. He has the need to know."
I needed to take charge- "Gentleman you will end this nonsense and brief me."
The CIA guy looked at me like he would look at a bug he was about to squash- it was a scary look. "Isn't that cute, he thinks he is in charge."
I now felt very uncomfortable, I did what I do best in these situations. I deferred to Rahm.
"Barry," said Rahm, "We need to talk about Michael Jackson."
"What about him?" I asked. I was always a big fan, so I wondered what the CIA had on him.
Rahm's answer was unbelievable. "He was head of the Illuminati- and the Nights of Columbus. Because the Illuminati is leaderless the is a vary real threat of a global economic meltdown."
I was fascinated and interjected "Like last fall?" CIA guy answered "He said "real" numb nuts." I wondered who's nuts were numb.
"That's not all. There is a very real chance of open warfare between the Knights of Columbus and the Shriners." added Rahm
"Wow my money is on the Knights- they've got swords" I said.
"I'm not worried about the swords" said CIA guy. "They both have nukes"
Yep, it's been an interesting day...
