Ha! The Eagle's brain has activated. Just how good is he going to be at plotting, scheming and manipulating? Now, if Ken were really smart, he'd volunteer to do odd jobs at whatever Utoland's equivalent of the local CWA or WI* is. Then he'd never go hungry. CWA: Country Women's Association - Australia's bastion of scones, lamingtons, cakes and the CWA Cookbook. Their motto is For Home and Country. WI: Women's Institute - Women's Institutes originated in Canada in the late 19th Century and spread to Britain in 1915. Similar to the CWA, Women's Institutes were mercilessly satirised by the Monty Python team in Monty Python's Flying Circus, much of which featured Eric Idle in drag. Basically, these organisations are made up of Ladies Who Organise, and a significant subset of Ladies Who Organise is Ladies Who Cook. The fact that one of the very first pages in the CWA Cookbook is titled, "Catering for 50 People," followed by "Afternoon tea at Fete," "Wedding Breakfast for 100 Guests" and "Catering for a Public Stock Sale" (that's cattle and sheep, not shares, and the Book says you should plan to feed around 300 adults - you start with two whole sheep) should tell you something.

LOL. Guess Ken figured he might as well get something out of the whole sordid deal. Food! Loved how he ordered Joe to "get down here now". ROFTL. Smart Condor to stay away--self preservation is key! Oh and we need to see Jun's reaction to the upcoming kiss outside the Snack.....so I hope you're continuing this Ebony!

Alas, the fire brigades here in BC are currently in an epic battle in the interior.

Yes, our thoughts are with the firefighters battling the emergency. Services from all Australian states have sent people over to assist. After all, the Canadians have come over and helped us when we've had big fires. It's kind of a good thing that you're in the northern hemisphere and we're in the southern, because our fire seasons are diametrically opposed and each country is able to send firefighters to help out the neighbours when things get a bit fraught.

Ebonyswanne: I'd love to see an ep with a scene with Ken jumping up when a "loose shoe" finds its way up his thigh!

GGO It's not really "a glitter of generals"...can't be How about "an embarrassment of chiefs of staff"? I don't know about Mark, but Jason would probably like it!

True!!

GGO: I love little moments where the Eagle gets to be human. Also makes me feel a little more normal!
