According to Wikileaks, ways the CIA is spying on you. 1. Tiny nano-sized microphones glued to spiders. 2. Transparent drones with telephoto lenses. 3. Clouds of sentient e-cig vapor 4. Sean Spicer breaking down your front door 5. Tiny cameras embedded in green St. Patrick’s Day bagels 6. Orbital mind-reading lasers 7. Subliminal messages to report your friends and neighbors being flashed into your brain as you sit and read this very post 8. Hiding behind a bush in my side yard with a pair of binoculars and a tape recorder. 9. Ultrapowerful but undetectable subterranean microwave beams that keep you from finishing any post on the Straight Do 10. Tiny cameras that run on poop are inserted into everybody’s butt during a colonoscopy 11. Butterflies. (Because _no one_ suspects the butterfly!) 12. In Soviet America, you spy on the CIA. What a country! 13. Every other Tuesday they call the Psychic Hotline. New! Early-blooming flowers. 1. Daffodils ---
