This is the first-ever edition of “Awesome / Not So Awesome”. The premise is simple: one item will be really awesome. The other will suck.

Awesome:
Jon found this awesome book for me. Check it out! I should get it to make sure I did everything properly.

Not So Awesome:
The Supreme Court ruled that a couple who was recruited to spy for the United States cannot sue the CIA for promised pay. I can kind of understand the national security concerns, but it’s totally uncool that the CIA is reneging on promises made. I can see recruiting spies to be that much harder if it’s well-known that the CIA won’t follow through.
