To all my readers, whether you’re a friend, colleague, comrade, fan of my book, intelligence officer, contractor or “government employee,” I hope you have a wonderful holiday and that 2009 brings you (and the rest of the world) some peace and prosperity!
Best wishes, Tim Shorrock
P.S. This picture was taken in Madrid, New Mexico. Madrid is an old mining town in the mountains north of Albuquerque, and has a fine tradition of lighting up for Christmas every year. During the 1950s, TWA airliners crossing the country used to fly low over the area so passengers could see the splendid display of lights and good cheer.
