Biography

Biography I have tried to make a biography of myself I managed three pages and found my life was so boring it was not worth the effort. I began fantasizing I had been a general in the foreign legion worked in central Africa as in security agent finding out of people who wanted a free country and not influenced by Franc`s interest in the region. Unfortunate people were thrown into jail and some of them executed. I helped France installing presidents who took bribes and followed the will of the French. Later on, Paris, I got information that someone was trying to assassinate the De Gaulle, they were disgruntled officer that had fled Algeria when France gave it independence, by doing so was to make the region a Francophone sphere. As an agent, I reported this the crazy generals went through with it and an attempt on De Gaulle´s life followed. Of course, the plot was thwarted and the guilty shot. I got bad conscience about my work left the legion and got a job as a cook in the merchant navy, and that is nothing to write about.
