After the sh*tstorm earlier this week I shouldn't, but I can't resist. Please
see:

Once again, SatireWire is at least as accurate as most smart bombs, and has at
least as much intelligence as the CIA.

NIMA = (U.S.) Nat'l Intelligence Mapping Agency, right?

More plausible than what I came up with, which was MOPPING agency -
tasked with providing cleared janitorial staff for sensitive government
facilities.....

Close: National Imagery and Mapping Agency, know to us (internally) as:

Not Interested in Maps Anymore No Intelligent Managers Anywhere

And the favorite -  a bastardized NIMA "seal" featuring the NIMA-Toad
(based on a management poster involving a colorful Amazonian frog out on
a limb with some prissy 'morale building' referenceabout our "culture" -
probably Streptococcus... - designed to make our involuntary conversion
to being in the IC (Intelligence Community) sound like a good thing) Too bad
Juno doesn't do attachments. It's kind of nice, loaded with innuendo about our
'real' agency seal.
