    I read The Company quite a few years ago, before the movie (muh) came out. Now I am in the grips of Legends, which I find fascinating in a million different ways. A few days ago I read the part about Triple Border, which is a very real and nasty place. He said bin Laden was there in the late 1990s. Who knows it could be true. If not him, loads of bad actors. There’s a movie about Triple Border. I think I already saw it. The previews look good, but . . .

    Last night I read the part about a Soviet/Russian bio-warfare lab. Ewww. Will humans and all the rest ever survive all this nonsense? Stay tuned . . .
