Are there no secrets any more? (A blast from my past)

 

What does it say about our world, if in a remote place like Abbottabad, Pakistan, you can’t conduct a secret mission? You’ve heard the stories of the tweets coming from bin Laden’s neighbors who inadvertently tweeted the on-going details of the US Raid. It touched my heart that the tweeter was an IT consultant.

 

Seeing the compound on the news today and hearing it compared to the other homes and buildings in the area, I guess we are all wondering what would it be like to find out your neighbor was the most hunted man on the planet. 

 

The thought takes me back to the ’70’s and Rocky Horror Picture Show when Brad and Janet sang Over at the Frankenstein place. How much weight would Tim Curry have to lose to play OBL? 

 

 

Janet Weiss

In the velvet darkness
Of the blackest night
Burning bright
There's a guiding star
No matter what or who you are

Brad and Janet

There's a light

Chorus

Over at the Frankenstein place

Brad and Janet

There's a light

Chorus

Burning in the fireplace

Brad and Janet

There's a light, light
In the darkness of everybody's life
