The following document officially isn't a collection of advice and observations on how to live a successful and fulfilling life as an intelligence officer. Especially not a CIA intelligence officer (and in particular, not a CIA intelligence officer who officially doesn't conduct covert action as directed by the president).

It is recommended that you deny having read this book, especially if you do not read this book. However, if you do read this book, it is recommended that you acknowledge having read this book, so that hostile counter-intelligence forces will assume you couldn't possibly be an intelligence officer since an intelligence officer presumably would never admit to having read this book.

This book will not self-destruct in five seconds. On the contrary, this book is already blowing up as we speak.

To my fellow intel officers. You know who you officially aren't.
