Shaken but not stirred Dog, or is it Dog, James Dog:

Caveat: All persons mentioned herein are fictional any resemblance to reality is purely coincidental.

Let's cut to the chase - forget the book, write a movie script! Lets call the movie - THE DANCE OF THE SEVEN VEILS. It will feature a secret agent who saves the world from WW III in the hot bed of all apocalypses - the M______ E______.

The heros mission is to defuse a nuclear bomb in the Oil fields of ________. You will deputize some fearless roughnecks working in the country of ______________. This glorious band of misfits will give the hero covering fire in the climactic scene, as he dashes through a hellish scene of blazing oil fields. Of course, a shapely and beautiful oil babe will be handcuffed to the bomb. Gotta save her too.

You could probably cobble together a credible FICTIONAL (as FICTION writers do) story from the following headlines:

washingtonpost.com

news.bbc.co.uk

news.bbc.co.uk

arabicnews.com

usia.gov

I'll even suggest a cast of ACTORS:

You - The hero, Dog of a thousand faces, Intel, black ops Defcon 5, govt. within a govt., super secret agent Dog - you get the girl in the end. You should keep the Texas drawl.

Doug V. Fant - The President of the United States - who else?

George S. Cole - Secretary of State, with special portfolio to the Middle East.

SargeK - Rogue B52 pilot. OK Sarge, Slim Pickens is dead we gotta get somebody.

Diana G. - Roving ambassatrix, operating out of an obscure cabin somewhere in the Catskills, N.Y. Note: she is to be youthful, intelligent, and possesing inordinate diplomatic skills. She is to be far better looking than Madeleine Albright. That won't be hard.

OilBabe - Uh oh - I ain't goin there, not with that name.

Razorbak - The hard digging super scud stud CNN investigative reporter.

John Clark - CEO of Exxon, or chairman of the Federal Reserve. He's a toughy, can't decide which.

Gary Burton - Wolf Blitzerish military reporter, good at explaining all military options.

SliderOnTheBlack - Since truth is stranger than fiction he'll have to play himself. He'll make up his own lines anyway. (just kidding Slider) Maybe The Sheik?

Roebear - Environmental scientist.

Moi? - Just gimmie the Houston popcorn concession.

This post is meant as humorous diversion, and is not to be taken seriously by anyone, anytime, anywhere. Nor is it mean spirited, malicious, or satiric.
