So, about being TIMELY. Sheesh.

...and I discover that the DEA's hiring freeze continues. (It's been two years, folks, if you're going to make them part of the Fatherland Motherland Homeland Security division, do it already.) Seems to me that writing a story about agents, the least you could do is make it about agents in a division that's actually, y'know, existing.

Time to rewrite, but time to rip apart instead. I think the special agents in question just became part of the Diplomatic Security Service (DSS). Or maybe part of the Department of State's Bureau of Diplomatic Security (DS). I'm not sure yet. I'm not even sure which is which.

Research time...
