How good could it be? I doubt there's much terrorism to talk about in a lib college in NY.

I'd watch a show about terrorism in Colombia. But instead, I'm going to watch the premir of the Traffic mini-series.

Terrorism my ass...

The entire show was focused on the Cartel and Pablo Escobar buying his way out of prison.

I did not watch it. I heard them talking about Escobar when it came on and I changed the channel.

While watching Mail Call earlier in the evening they listed Terrorism in Colombia as coming on at 2300. Maybe they changed their mind. Dunno.

Ok, you didn't get the hints, so I'll help you. Look at how you spelled Colombia and Escobar.

When you get there, you may be tasked to do some writing. Somebody like The Reaper will destroy a document with red ink with these kinds of errors and you may not be taken seriously after that. Attention to detail troop.

Once you make Team Sergeant, you can spell words any way you want.

If you make CSM, you can make up your own words.

I did get your hint NDD, however I missed Jimbo's. It must be the lack of sleep here at the FD last night.

I had originally thought about editting it out but thought you would have more fun with it if I left the misspelling intact.
