1. Mission Not Accepted

Because it truly would be Mission Impossible.

2. That's the Situation.

Those who can and don’t are part of the problem.

3. Who is ethan hunt?

5. That was my question too. I flunk anything like trivial pursuit.

But typing your question directly into my search engine (https://kagi.com/search?q=Who+is+ethan+hunt)
gave me:

Ethan Matthew Hunt is a fictional character and the protagonist of the Mission: Impossible film series. He is portrayed by Tom Cruise. The character of Ethan Hunt is a highly skilled field agent and operative for the Impossible Missions Force (IMF), a secret government agency that handles dangerous and high-stakes missions.

Personally, I don't give a shit about all of these made-for-tv/etc. stories and actors. Life is too full with real people and situations.

6. Thank you. I am not a fan of that scientology nutcase, have never

seen him in anything.

7. Then you can opt for the more staid Mr Phelps, Jim Phelps.

Played by Peter Graves on the original TV series.

8. I'd fail on that too. For some reason T.V. never had a fascination for me even as a kid.

But I was a "kid" in the 50s/early 60s.

10. So was I. All the shows I watched in the 60s...

...came back as syndicated reruns in the 70s. I watched them all again and again.

9. Yes, of course! Peter was a really nice guy, always smiling and polite

when I saw him.

4. Complicity

They might finally figure out that they are their own worst enemy 🤔

11. Eww. Is that a small white stain on the couch? 🤢🤮
