Executive Orders is the Iranian Ebola Virus book

Rainbow Six is the Aussie Olympics where an engineered Ebola virus was to be released and backed up later with an infectious vaccine.

I am beginning to like the Kelly/Chavez books more than the Ryan ones.

The last few Clancy novels could, indeed have done with an attack by pruning sheers.

And what the hell does IIRC stand for?

Sorry for the abbreviation. Too much chat time, I guess. :o

Those books start running together after a while :eek:

I have to concur with you about the Kelly/Chavez books. They are a little more “real” than the Ryan ones. As for the pruning shears? I think I’d recommend the HEDGE trimmers. 😃
