perfidy

The Ministry would like to extend its gratitude to Minister Buckethead. His absence from these annals has been noted with regret, but the loss of his insights here is more than equalled by his subaltern heroics these last few weeks. Hundreds of gnomes and day-laborers gave their lives so that his mission could be a success, and their sacrifices were not in vain. His mission may be secret, but its outcome will visible from low earth orbit very shortly.

Once the burns heal-- and they are healing nicely-- and that nasty business with the Yemeni Foreign Service is cleared up, we expect Minister Buckethead to return to active duty with gusto and verve.

Or else.

That is all.
