off the list (bis)

Wow... Somebody on Facebook rather tersely took me to task for revealing which character Cumberbatch plays in "Star Trek: Into Darkness" even though it's pretty much been an open secret for a couple of weeks. I took him off my FB list. Yes, it's the second person I've done this with in less than a week, but I don't want to ever accidentally spill any secret to him. He might not know who Rosebud was.

"Guardian"

"As a rule, he thought that meetings should be hard to hold and hard to get to, crowded into stuffy, uncomfortable rooms where everyone wanted to leave as soon as possible."

Admiral Jack Geary on P.165 of "Guardian", the latest novel by Jack Campbell, aka John Hemry.
