In fact, I enjoyed Reilly, even though I don't like him much as a person and found the movies quite scary and disterbing because of the subject.IrishOboehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04453472930062755134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419488710730314262.post-88607784328375884392010-01-13T16:07:52.790+01:002010-01-13T16:07:52.790+01:00I say, if you can get someone to pay for you to ge...I say, if you can get someone to pay for you to get a top secret clearance, go for it! It's very handy to put on your résumé, I hear, and it has become very expensive to get. Like a green card, a company may be very anxious to hire you, but not willing to pay for the paperwork. So if you think you might want to be in a field where many of the jobs require such a clearance, starting with one that pays for you to get it could be a smart move.<br /><br />Or so I've heard. Your mileage may vary.<br /><br />If you don't have enough reasons to be glad you're not a spy, you could watch "Reilly: The Ace of Spies," a fascinating series about the man Ian Fleming used as his model for James Bond. For a number of reasons I can't recommend it wholeheartedly, but it's a really interesting glimpse of politics in the early 20th century.SursumCordahttp://sursumcorda.salemsattic.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419488710730314262.post-13989794800205871492010-01-13T14:27:17.101+01:002010-01-13T14:27:17.101+01:00US, British, KBG, spy, Army, War, security clearan...US, British, KBG, spy, Army, War, security clearance, liar, top secret, worryingly, mystery, successful, died, relationship, Cold War,...<br /><br />haha, look at these keywords, I'm pretty sure that this blog post attracted the attention of pretty much every intelligence agency out there!
