My Life: In Short. In actuality, I am a 75 year-old spy who is a wonderful master of disguise. Other than that, my previous experiences include living a horribly boring life, which primarily consisted of watching far too much TV and playing a sickeningly vast amount of video games. Into my teen years I joined the circus, an apparently fascinating adventure that revealed it’s self to be dreadfully dull. Upon turning 18 I found employment in a factory that manufactured the film reels which would later be used to have documentaries recorded on them. Obviously it was the most boring job imaginable. It was 46 years later, at the age of 64 that I was contacted by the FBI. I was overjoyed to work as a spy, at last, a chance for a career filled with intrigue. But as fate would have it, I wound up sorting paperclips. It is only now, 11 years later that by means of my connection with the disguise artist that I have placed myself at age 21 to relive my youth in an attempt to bring at least the slightest degree of interest to my life.
