You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Non-disclosure agreement. Basically, you can't talk about what you know.

Oh, Maria. It sounds like they know you're one in a million and made of awesome, at least, but still. That's not much consolation.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The rebels have entered Gaddafi's compound.

not your mom's socks.

Maria, so sorry - Is there a chance, once you're out of NDA timeframe, you could revisit?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Thanks everyone. It's for 24 months. It was left on a very positive note, but a lot can happen in 2 years.

I just hate that we got so far into the process and it got my hopes up.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Now I want to rescue you. I wish I could rescue you.

Going to the eye doctor for the first time since 2007! It sure is going to be nice to be able to see again.

Oh Maria, that sucks a lot. Stupid NDA. At least you have a new job, though, that's good, even if it might be sucky. Fingers crossed that maybe in a couple years you can go back to the other one...
