Every time the door gets a knock I think the FBI or CIA are on my doorstep.

I feel a bit sorry about the lady diplomat though.

I had a pretty similar one but was surprised to see the CIA was using a hotmail address when dealing with something so serious.

This thread is less exciting than Spion's "10 random songs from ever" thread.

It's pretty much the random word thread, except people are posting emails that they got from other people instead of making up shit themselves.

Where's that safe-house.

I think it's brilliant. It basically saves everybody the hassle of bothering to look in their spam folder and reading any of the many thousands of copies of the exact same emails that are being posted here. What's not to love about that valuable service?
