post 540. my favorite childhood book.

when i was a kid, i read the good spy guide's disguise & make-up (as well as the accompanying books catching crooks and secret messages) over and over: i made false beards, fashioned a secret pocket on the inside of my belt, and was writing in codes galore. of course, i was quite the amateur; my parents - regardless of how well i disguised myself or altered my walk to appear as someone else - always knew it was me, and that i was supposed to take out the trash.
