Heh... a friend loaned me his Bourne DVD's this past weekend. I watched the first two in the series, haven't bothered to see the new one. I know many here have seen all three. I found the movies to be quite action packed, but I can see how films like these leads to misconceptions in the public's eye. That being said...

You might be a CIA assassin if... you have a wooden box stashed in your basement that includes multiple passports, loads of cash from various countries and at least one firearm consisting of a either a sniper rifle, machine gun and/or pistol.

Any others??

I have a wooden box with "Robert" engraved on the lid. I have had it since I was young whippersnapper. After seeing Steve's post I figured I better check the contents just in case. Two yo-yos, a compass, a magnifying glass, a three foot tape measure and some marbles. Whew! I am not a CIA assassin.

(I like the Bourne movies and want to see this latest one)
 
you may be a cia assassin if every time you pick up a pencil people around you die
 
After three ears of sweet corn last night... today I AM A LETHAL WEAPON!;):D
 
You might be a CIA senior spymaster if... you have an office with floor-to-ceiling windows that look out on the general public and customarily sit with you back to those windows reading super, ultra, top-secret documents so that anyone across the street with some optics can read along with you over your shoulder.

Yes, these films do take some liberties. But, they're still fun.

If you want to know how the game is really played by a man who has played it, read, The Master of Disguise and Spydust by Tony Mendez.

How about if you have a number of safe deposit boxes in different countries holding the above items?

I'm not sure that qualifies as taking liberties. :p
 
You find yourself in the company of a hot chick and quickly realize that half of the world is trying to kill her.:D:D:D

I like the Transporter also:thumbup::thumbup:

uh-oh. I have two wooden boxes. One, like Thomason's has "young whippersnapper" stuff in it. A couple slot-cars, some old photos, unopened deck of cards from Ozark airlines, another deck of cards that have some, um, pictures on them (can't let the kids find that one), ...

I'm afraid to open the other one.
 
I built my own wooden box when I was a teenager. It was like a footlocker. When I moved out to go to school out of town I gave it and some of its contents to my little brother. I think he wasted that like everything else I gave him. :p
