CNN is reporting that Colby's canoe has been found on the Potomac and Colby is missing.
Don't tell me, let me guess: The guy who rented the canoe to him has suddenly retired, and has been reportedly seen going on a Park Avenue shopping spree. Right?
Jim, I don't find dumb jokes about dead people I liked particularly funny.
Aren't you making an assumption that Colby is dead? No body has been found, last I heard. Maybe he just decided that he wanted to disappear in a comparatively non-suspicious fashion?
Having met Colby and being somewhat familiar with his political skills I would be surprised if he would ever think a drowning accident was "non-suspicious." William Colby, whatever anyone may think of intelligence, was quite a man, respected in the community, a major in the OSS and a World War II hero decorated 5 times. His like are not common. I hope he is found alive and well.
