Discordia Does James Bond

I heard this on NPR this week, driving home from work. It was an ancedote about the attempts by Russian spies to ice the leader of Afghanistan. OK, the guy's chef was a Russian spy, right, so they directed him to poison a glass of Coke and serve it to him. Turns out something in Coca-cola totally neutralizes the poison they were using, so he didn't even belch.

OK, then they had him lace some of his food with poison. Guy got sick as a dog. But because nobody at the Russian embassy was filled in on the assassination plot, they heard the Afghan leader was dying and rushed over some top-flight Russian doctors who saved the suffering man's life -- it must have been a close thing because the speaker telling the story used the word "revive" to describe how they saved him.

By this time, I picture the Central Committee in the Kremlin getting madder than wet cats. They finally just invaded the country, and shot the guy. If you want something done right, use a gun.

WHO DO YOU THINK STAGE-MANAGED ALL THAT CHOREOGRAPHY -- THE EASTER BUNNY?
