It was murderous out there. Agents were dropping left and right, and both sides were throwing everything they could into the fight. While the global media kept announcing to the world that the cold war was coming to an end, Ben Goldthorpe knew better. Maybe The Wall really was coming down, maybe the Iron Curtain really was collapsing. But as far as Ben was concerned, the cold war had never been hotter.

It had been five years since he first left Langley. In that time he’d learned a lot. OJT they called it. From his perspective it was “keeping from getting my [deleted] shot off in hostile territoryâ€

Maybe if you added a specific or two about what you are looking for could lead people to help you get the information you need. Other than he went to Denton High (I think) and is still supposedly on scholarship here.

Um...he got a new nose last summer after getting in a fight and also crashed his BMW in between all of that. Is that good enough?

It was a fight with a former KGB assassin, and the BMW was wrecked on official assignment FYI.

No, because he feels no shame.

Love your signature, by the way. Here's hoping Hawaii beats Neuter Dump by 70.
