MEMORANDUM OPINION

In a lengthy, disjointed complaint, plaintiff, a resident of Alexandria, Virginia, sues the United States for a host of events that allegedly occurred between "November 1990 till 2009," Compl. at 2, mostly in New York and Virginia by state and local officials Although plaintiff seeks to hold the United States responsible, he has not directly implicated the United States, its agencies or its employees in any wrongdoing and, thus, has failed to state a claim against the only

named defendant. A separate Order of dismissal accompanies this Memorandum Opinion.
