I think it might have gone something like this:

GOLLUM: Hello, I'm a physics professor and I'd like to report a degree mill.
SS GUY: What the hell is that?
GOLLUM: I teach college students about the physical laws of the universe, such things as matter, energy, force....
SS GUY: No, dumbass, what the hell is a degree mill?
GOLLUM: It's an operation that takes people's money but doesn't give them anything of value.
SS GUY: Sounds like the Secret Service! Ha ha ha haha ha. Seriously, pal, so effing what?
GOLLUM: Well, I think it might be against the law or something.
SS GUY: Yeah, okay Baldy, leave your file and we'll look into it and let you know. Don't hold your breath.
GOLLUM: Okay, but do exercise caution. These people are high school drop outs, you know.
SS GUY: So am I.
GOLLUM: Oh, um, well, here's a picture of the ring leader. She might look short and defenseless but her keyboard packs a wallop.
SS GUY: Yeah, alright....wow, that's the ring leader? Got any more shots of her? You know, I do believe this might be just the sort of nefarious enterprise that the Secret Service should be scrutinizing. It's not like we had anything better to do. Think they might have any porn on their computers?
GOLLUM: I don't know....urrr, I mean, oh! I'm sure of it! The most vile and prurient type.
SS GUY: Now you're talking, Curly. This degree mill thing, that's not really a starter. Half the guys working here are probably customers. But we always got time for porn. And hot babes. Does this gal have any daughters?
GOLLUM: Definitely. The whole family works there. It's a very nepotistic operation.
SS GUY: Nepa-what?
GOLLUM: You know, like when they hire someone who is a family member.
SS GUY: [Adjusts sunglasses] My old man was in the Secret Service for 20 years, pal. Are you cracking wise?
GOLLUM: No. Never mind. Did I mention I'm a physics professor? This is all so exciting. Do you think I can like help or something?
SS GUY: Yeah, there's a Krispy Kreme a block over. Go and pick us up a couple dozen Dulce de Leches. Leave them pictures here so we can commence to investigate.

I'd bet kroner to Krispy Kremes that Kate's version is a lot closer to actual events than whatever Gollum makes up for his fairy tale book.
Where is that book, anyway? Is Gollum trying to figure out how to get paid two or three more times? Or is UI's legal department still reviewing it for potential defamation actions? Nice deep pocket there for somebody.

New Secret Service scandal in El Salvador
The SS are obviously incompetent clowns whose only mission is their own decadent self-interest. Thus, the only "law enforcement" agency that would bother with an incompetent self-serving clown like George Gollin.

I was going to say that maybe the SS mistook Gollin for a clown, like at the GSA convention in Vegas.
But then I read this....
Debauchery: An American specialty
Now I'm wondering if maybe the SS mistook him for a dancing penis.

Apparently, the secret service guys have a track record of this behavior while traveling abroad. They patronize strip clubs and seek out "working ladies"......for some of these guys, it's "standard operating procedure". Pretty revolting and I'm being charitable.....

An agency that submits false information including false references and documentation to fraudulently obtain a PLA degree, then breaks into someone's business, steals their files, and lies about it....clearly that is a circus. And there's nothing secret about it any more.
Of course, a culture of corruption and self-aggrandizing, self-serving decadence would readily recognize one of their own....
Quote:Secret Service scandal may be systemic of agency culture
by Audrey Hudson
05/23/2012
A Senate panel investigating the Columbia prostitution scandal involving a dozen Secret Service agents believes the incident may not be an isolated occurrence but rather systemic of the agency's culture.
"Contrary to the conventional story line, this was not simply a single, organized group that went out for a night on the town together," said Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine). "This was not a one-time event. The circumstances unfortunately suggest an issue of culture."
The Secret Service agents are accused of drinking heavily at a strip bar, and then bringing prostitutes back to their hotel during the April trip to Cartagena where President Barack Obama was planning to visit. Hotel staff said they had to break up a fight in the hallway between an agent and a prostitute as they argued over how much the woman charged. The scandal has tarnished the reputation of the agency, earning it the nickname "Secret Circus."
The agents did not try and conceal their behavior that night, and registered the prostitutes as overnight guests at the hotel under their real names. Collins said the action strongly suggest the agents did not think they would get caught.
Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.), chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, says there have been 64 complaints of sexual misconduct made against the Secret Service over the last five years.
"If one agent had not argued with a woman about how much money he owed her, the world would not know this sordid story," Lieberman said at a hearing last week examining the internal investigation ongoing with the agency.
Lieberman says the purpose of his committee's investigation is to restore the Secret Service's credibility, not to diminish the agency.
However, Lieberman said it was difficult to believe that in this instance, agents "suddenly and spontaneously did something agents never did before."
Secret Service Director Mark Sullivan told the panel that the president's security was never breached and that draconian measures have been put in place to prevent a similar incident.
"I am deeply disappointed, and I apologize for the misconduct of these employees and the distraction that it has caused," Sullivan said.
At least eight agents have resigned in light of the scandal and at least two agents are challenging claims they were involved.
The training manual has been updated to include a rule that U.S. laws are to be observed while travelling abroad, Sullivan said. Prostitution is legal in Colombia. ...

Drunken, embezzling, wiretapping porn addicts? Yep, those are just the sort of people who think George Gollin is credible.
Quote:Secret Service's 229-page log reveals agents' porn, wiretap, embezzlement and drunken misdeeds
Bad boys exposed

It went way beyond hookers.
Secret Service agents and officers have been accused of leaking sensitive information, publishing porn, sexual assaults, illegal wiretaps, embezzlement and drunkenness on duty, according to a 229-page log released yesterday.
After a prostitution scandal in April, when agents consorted with hookers while preparing for President Obama's arrival in Colombia, Service Director Mark Sullivan apologized. But he said it was an isolated case, not a "systemic issue."
However, the log, which the Service Service released yesterday after news organizations requested it under the Freedom of Information Act, shows a pattern of misdeeds dating back to 2003.
In one 2005 incident, a drunken agent was yanked from his role as the "detail leader" for a team assigned to protect the visiting president of the Dominican Republic.
Another agent, with a blood-alcohol level above the legal limit, was arrested in Los Angeles after driving into a ditch.
And in January 2011, police in New York arrested an investigative support assistant on charges of sexual abuse. The records do not list an outcome for the case.
Although the names were left out and the log was heavily censored, it provided ammunition for critics who say the Secret Service is out of control.
In an August 2011 incident, an employee was accused of pushing a woman who also worked for the agency onto a bed during a work trip. The employee "got on top of [censored] attempting to have sex," even though the woman "told [censored] 'no' several times."
The entry noted that supervisors described the accused as ""a conscientious and dependable employee." The incident was closed with an "administrative disposition" in February.
They also included an anonymous complaint in October 2003 that a Secret Service agent "may have been involved with a prostitution ring." It noted that two telephone numbers belonging to the agent, who has since retired, turned up as part of an FBI investigation into a prostitution ring.
In addition, in 2005, an employee was reported to the Washington field office for being arrested on a charge of solicitation in a park.
In 2008, an on-duty uniform-division officer was arrested in a Washington prostitution sting. The officer, who was driving a marked Secret Service vehicle at the time, was placed on administrative leave, the records show.

Do you think they let George Gollin "handle their weapons"?
Quote:EXCLUSIVE: Secret Service agents partied like rock stars on Obamas' Vineyard Vacation
By Jana Winter
Published June 19, 2012
MARTHA'S VINEYARD, Mass. -- Long before President Obama's security detail was scandalized in Colombia and new revelations emerged last week about the Secret Service, members of the elite team earned an "Animal House" reputation at the blueblood vacation mecca of Martha's Vineyard.
Local residents say wild parties, fights and late-night carousing involving Secret Service members have become commonplace in recent years at the Vineyard, a favorite getaway for the First Family and longtime destination for upper-crust members of the Northeastern political, media and business establishment.
"I expect parties during the summer. People come here to have fun -- they're on vacation," said a resident who lives in the East Chop section of Oak Bluffs, near the six-bedroom Victorian mansion whose owners dubbed it the Secret Service's "party house," after agents staying in a cluster of adjacent homes converged on it for late-night soirees. "But I didn't think it'd be Secret Service people here protecting the president."
Trashed rental homes, bad behavior and barroom brawls that have required the local police to step in have some disgusted Martha's Vineyard homeowners vowing never to rent out to the Secret Service again. And while none of the disturbing behavior appeared to have any direct effect on the president's safety, some occurred even as the president and his family were nearby.
One resident called police in the early morning on Aug. 18, 2011, about a party that went on until well past 4 a.m. on the day President Obama arrived for a nine-day vacation. Cars were parked on a lawn strewn with beer bottles and young women went in and out of the house as shouts from a spirited foosball game pierced the wee-hours air, neighbors told FoxNews.com.
A police report obtained by FoxNews.com describes two local cops arriving at 2:23 a.m. to find as many as a dozen people on the porch "talking and laughing loudly."
"I was informed by two males that it's a rental house and they were working the presidential vacation," the report states. "I informed them that it was still 2:30 a.m. and people in the area are complaining about the loud voices, and [they] were told to go inside and close the windows."
In response to FoxNews.com's request for comment, Secret Service spokesman Max Milien in Washington said the Secret Service "has not received any complaints or information regarding alleged misconduct of its personnel operating in Martha's Vineyard during the summer of 2011. Any information brought to our attention that can be assessed as credible will be followed up on in an appropriate manner."
But at least one Vineyard homeowner says that isn't true.
She said her husband called the Secret Service in Washington last year to complain about the rowdy behavior of agents and damage they caused to their home, but his gripe was dismissed by officials who told her "that's what they do on vacation"-- even though the agents were on assignment at the Vineyard.
"If Secret Service says they've never received complaints about these same guys, then there is clear evidence to the contrary -- if they say that, they're lying," the woman told FoxNews.com. "We were the only ones to care, apparently. Nobody else cared about them partying, trashing the house, bringing girls home.
"We would not rent to them again," she said.
She described a wake of destruction left by the commander-in-chief's bodyguards, including the Counter Assault and Counter Sniper Teams, the same elite groups that got into trouble in Colombia. Antique furniture was destroyed, expensive "locally harvested" wide pine flooring was ruined and beer and liquor bottles were scattered throughout the property after agents stayed in the house, one of several stately million-dollar Victorians with pastel-painted wood shingles and wraparound porches of the exclusive East Chop section of Oak Bluffs.
The homeowners and several neighbors described another incident where police responded to complaints about a truck parked half on the lawn, half on the driveway. Cops arrived, spoke to the Secret Service agents inside and, moments later, a half-dressed woman came running out, got in the truck and sped off, said neighbors.
The home police responded to on Aug. 18, 2011, was described by one neighbor as a virtual "party house" for local college girls home for the summer, while another neighbor said she saw young women coming and going during more than one raging Secret Service party.
The owner of a six-bedroom home rented out the last two summers to the same Secret Service team that got in trouble in South America showed FoxNews.com a bullet he said was left behind by the agents and said CAT agents let neighborhood children and other residents handle their weapons.
More alarmingly, he said the men told him details of presidential security plans and logistics.
"They left ammo behind, they told me things they shouldn't have been telling me, things they shouldn't be telling anyone about the details about how they protect the president. They let us hold their weapons, see all their stuff, they had huge house parties," said the man, who spoke to FoxNews.com with his wife on the condition they not be named.
Real estate agents with knowledge of the East Chop homes rented out to Secret Service said a child found a spent shell casing on a front lawn of one of the homes.
Glen Caldwell, the general manager of Offshore Ale in Oak Bluffs, told FoxNews.com about an incident last summer when one of his staff found a Secret Service badge on the floor after the bar had closed at the end of the night. The commission book also included a list of emergency phone numbers -- two 1-800 Secret Service numbers, a Department of Homeland Security ID card.
"It was on the floor of the bar for who knows how long, covered in peanuts. It was pretty clear that the guy was drunk," Caldwell said.
When another worker found the badge, Caldwell said he put it in the bar's safe. He then got a frantic call an hour or two later from someone asking if they'd found a Secret Service ID. He said the owner soon showed up at the bar and, when he asked for proof that the ID was his, showed a Virginia driver's license bearing the same name.
"You didn't call any of those numbers did you?" the agent nervously asked, recalled Caldwell, who had not.
A woman who was close to one of the agents and spent time with a group of them last summer said she was concerned about the national security implications of them bringing home women -- many of whom were foreign nationals -- nearly every night. She said the agents she spent time with did not bring their weapons out at night to the bars and parties, but that detailed information about the protection plans for the president was on all of their cellphones -- as were the phone numbers, locations and contact phone numbers for everyone on the detail.
In another incident, a local bartender said she and her boyfriend were playing pool with White House staffers who were members of Obama's detail at an Oak Bluffs restaurant when they ran out of quarters. She said the staffers shot pool using what they said was the cash they were carrying for Obama -- the president doesn't carry his own cash; White House staffers traveling with the president pay for his meals or other purchases.
Yet despite the myriad incidents, neither local law enforcement nor Secret Service officials in Washington would acknowledge a problem with the agents' behavior on Martha's Vineyard.
"This isn't news," Oak Bluffs Police Lt. Timothy Williams insisted to FoxNews.com, when asked about the East Chop address party. "There's no news here," he said, while also refusing to make available the officers who responded to the early morning party.
A chef at one popular restaurant, who cooked for a Secret Service party last summer, said the hi-jinks weren't confined to the male agents. Three female Secret Service agents at the affair "partied just as much, if not more, than the other guys," he said, and even organized tequila-fueled "ladies nights" out on the town.
The women also detailed protection strategies the security team provided for the president.
"The women talked about all the layers of protection -- what they do, how they protect the president -- the secret things that nobody is supposed to ever know about," the chef said.
Several locals said they were disturbed the agents seemed to treat the president's vacation as their own, even though the agents were on duty. Among the complaints are that some agents used their status to skip out on bar tabs, or using restricted parking areas while out boozing it up at local bars.
"They think they own the place, that they're above the law," said a bartender at the Wharf, a bar in Edgartown across the road from where White House advance team and Signal Corp communications teams set up shop in the month before the president's arrival on the Vineyard. "[They'll say], 'I kill people for a living, the President of the United States is alive because of me,'" the bartender said.
SEND TIPS TO NEWSMANAGER@FOXNEWS.COM
Elsewhere, Vineyard residents reported Secret Service agents crashing parties all over the island. Last summer, the annual Harley-Davidson "Run to the Rock" event coincided with Obama's visit, and many people reported seeing numerous Secret Service agents joining the party and drinking at the annual gathering.
Not everyone has problems with the Secret Service rentals. Walter Vail, an elected official in Oak Bluffs, said Secret Service teams that rented his home treated it with respect. He said the men used a large tree in his yard to do pull ups, ran windsprints down the main street and played wiffleball on the enormous lawn of a home next to his that was also rented.
And others on the island say Secret Service agents should be allowed to party, as long as they keep the First Family safe.
"Boys will be boys," said Peter Martell, owner of the Wesley Hotel in Oak Bluffs, which has hosted Secret Service since Bill Clinton first vacationed on Martha's Vineyard in 1993.
Hotel workers say that for as long as they've been staying there, there's been a cooler of beer waiting for each agent when he returns from his shift.
"They work their butts off, these guys, and they do a hell of a job. If they want to have a little fun here, what's the harm?" Martell said.

Why not? They seem to have trouble handling them themselves. This might explain Gollin's bathroom fixation. When he's not dreaming of serpents he's wishing for handguns in the crapper.
Quote:Secret Service gun inadvertently left in Romney plane lavatory
(CBS News) A gun belonging to a member of Mitt Romney's U.S. Secret Service detail was found unattended in the bathroom of the candidate's charter plane Wednesday afternoon. The Republican nominee was traveling from Tampa, Fla., site of his party's convention, to Indianapolis, Ind., for a speech.
The weapon, presumably left behind in the bathroom by accident, was discovered by a CBS News/National Journal reporter, who alerted a flight attendant about the gun. A member of the Secret Service on board the plane was informed and retrieved the gun.
Romney has traveled with Secret Service protection since early February and has an armed detail assigned to him at all times. His wife, Ann, was just assigned her own detail - albeit a smaller one - last Friday.
Secret Service spokesman Ed Donovan told CBS News/National Journal in a statement: "We are aware of the incident. We take the care and custody of our equipment, especially firearms, very seriously. We will deal with this matter internally and in an appropriate manner."
