    In this, the era of unemployment, I think we should all invent some jobs for ourselves. (Before our new benevolent dictator Fago! has us reclaiming marshaes or building autobahns for the motherland)

    I shall be (for now) Vice President, no no, Junior executive vice president of penguin and lemur affairs at the international bureau of cuteness.

    I'll just carry round the "sunshine baskets" and hand out the courtesy advertising calendars and discount coupons to all the new neighbors, moving into all the empty houses that have been put up for sale after the foreclosures. "Kay???:)

    the information revolution has put a whole class of receptionist out of work

    I think they should build fan sites for their favorite band

    the distribution of wealth has become more centralized with automation

    I want one with a fancy title and loads of abbreviations behind it.

    Mmmh. How about "Senior Executive Directing Manager, Dr. Esq. LIIPP, Bach."

    Yeah I like it.

    As for Fago!'s domination, I will put in a written application to be minister of trade and enterprise and foreign affairs.

    I'm something Latverian, I sent Spot out to protect the borders. No reason I
    can't be the sunshine lady. Let's have some pina coladas they're sunny. OOh! I must have a coupon for that ... Somewhere. (Hey! Sunshine lady beats crazy cat lady!:p)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,570 ✭✭✭sNarah


    Did I hear Coupons???

    I'm Director of Defense. I think "Director" sounds more sinister and manly than "Secretary" :p

    sNarah helps out of course, being the head of R&D. I'm expecting great things from the Portable DIY Crab Foodstuff Robot... ;)

    Well, in addition to "Sunshine Lady" (yes coupons - for movies, for dinner out, for groceries, shoes, discounts discounts. address books from the local undertaker, advertising pens from the bank, oh and note pads from the state representative) I have recently accepted the job as Fago's personal bodyguard. Impressive. Huh?


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 18,381 Mod ✭✭✭✭Solitaire


    No... you're just the Sunshine Lady silly! :p

    SSSHHHH!!!!!!!! The reason you're Fago's last line of defense is because no-one expects the Sunshine Lady to actually have seven PhDs in the school of ass-kicking and be a powerful summoner to boot! But if you keep flappin' that trap you'll ruin the element of surprise!!!

    *in soft monotonous voice*

    Deki is the best Sunshine lady in the world.
    She spreads sunshine like no one else.
    She made me so happy, happy like never before.
    The big bow was really nice also.

    I am so happy...
