USA Network's Burn Notice Is Awesome

If anybody really does have a time travel device, it is probably in the hands of the CIA by now. Whaa???

USA Network's Burn Notice features Michael Weston, a CIA Operative, who gets fired. Except when you are out of the CIA it's more than just a dismissal. He is going to be faced with the difficult task of getting back in the Spy Game without all the technology and resources that he had come to rely on at the agency. Add to that the fact that the CIA is putting those same resources into an effort to keep him down, even if that means killing him.

I think one of the most effective spy tools is an uprooted bush. You can hide behind it and move toward your objective, stopping only when you suspect that you are being watched. In the unlikely event that the person under surveillance sees through your ingenious bush device, you need to have a backup. I recommend that you wear a standard issue combination dark rimmed glasses/big nose/mustache device. That way, even if they approach you, you can effectively conceal your identity.

I would assume that someone who has been given a burn notice might have a hard time getting access to a bullet proof vest. One US soldier got his 15 minutes of fame when his iPod stopped a bullet. You could get one of those fishing vests with all the pockets and fill them with every small brand name electronic device that you can find. Ducking behind a car is another great defnse against gunfire. For best results, use someone else's car.

If you haven't figured it out yet, I am not a very good spy. You should get a sneak peek at Burn Notice to see how a real out of work expert does it,
