Reeling in the years

Jeff 'Skunk' Baxter, once of the Doobie Brothers and Steely Dan, is now a leading counterterrorism expert. All resultant jokes or legitimate points about the move from herbal-flavoured psychedelic jazz-rock (and he played on Joni Mitchell's The Hissing Of Summer Lawns too, it says here) to neocon association, surely wither on reading this, with its drawing in lieu of a photo of this well-known man, the idea he "peppers his speech with casual profanity", the revelation of his anti-illness preparations and, um, oil-eating bacteria.
