3 Hunt. CIA. JFK Murder. Tramps.
4 If the guy who has three pictures on the left, above is the guy who has four pictures to the right, then this guy was probably a ringleader in the assassination of JFK.
5 Three "tramps" were arrested, walked through Dealy Plaza, and released that day. Pictures were taken. The guy on the left is one of the three. The one on the right is E. Howard Hunt of the CIA.

14 Moving On: I just had to move on because I didn't want to sound like a doddering old fool. I actually haven't moved on at all, but I thought it would be fun for you to THINK I had. It's that old CIA thing in me.
15 It so happens that I'm an agent.
16 No one ever believes that. Perfect disguise.
17 I know a thing or two about charades too.
18 I have a spy disguise kit. Here's my fave:
 19 Anywho, I cracked Hunt's code years ago.
20 Well, Hunt's gone now, so I guess it won't hurt to blow his cover.
21 Here are some of my favorite pictures of Hunt over the years:
 So long Howie, we hardly knew ye.
