Next time this Steve Martin comes to talk to you tell him "Pardon me, but I have to go to the POWDER Room".
If he follows you to the bathroom, then he is a Gay. If he panics and call the SWAT Team then he is a CIA.
Another less dramatic option is to wear a T-shirt with a US Flag, and on it written " American love has reached Afghanistan, we saved Afghanistan by making love to it". I think this will make Steve leave you alone and go to the next Arab looking Mexican.
: yes, yes. someone is attacking America. people tell me this all the time.
: this Steve Martin look-a-like who keeps coming on to me every time i'm walking alone in the hallway between the elevator & my lab (i think he's with the CIA & the lab tech thing is his cover-up) well, he was trying to make conversation with me (i never really respond to his statements - usually i just keep walking & pretend like he's not there - i don't know how to tell him that his statements only make me really upset; if he wants a date w/ me, he ought to try a less political route or educate himself) & he was basically telling me that the US was doing Afghanistan a favor with this "war" (i grimaced... how much more of this idiocy must i take? & why won't he leave me the hell alone?). & then !!shocker!! he tells me that the US is trying to expand the war to Iraq. i basically told him in a polite way, "no shit Sherlock" & then told him to read online journals like the progressive, zmag, FAIR, commondreams, etc. God, if he's representative of the masses here, then Americans have no earthly clue how much they are under attack, especially their minds. those are always the 1st things to go...
