Fight Club fans might like this. |
When I graduated from college, I thought it would be cool to go to work for
the DEA. I spoke Spanish, Portuguese, and enough Mandarin to be passable.
I envisioned trekking off to S America or SE Asia to fight the drug war.
Nope. Not what happened. I ended up in Birmingham Alabama of all places.
A month into my fieldwork, me and a buddy were working undercover when a
carjacker picked the wrong car to carjack as we were setting up a sting at
a gas station south of Birmingham. My buddy, Agent Doug Althouse, was shot
to death.
Welcome to the DEA.
So I quit. I found a job working as a branch manager at a local bank. I
had been there maybe a month when the Secret Service came to see me about a
counterfeiting ring operating in the area. The agent in charge of the
investigation was a guy named:
Robert Paulson. The irony of that is incredible. Agent Robert Paulson
worked for the Secret Service. Meat Loaf woulda never worked for the
Secret Service.
I ended up going to Shanghai for 5 years working for Morgan Stanley. What
a weird path, huh?

I could never bring myself to work/help the DEA.

Yea, I bet there's not more than two Robert Paulson's in the whole wide
world.
Next you're going to tell us his partner was Agent Smith.
