Letter From The President (XIX): Time Mismanagement

Countrymen and women, loyalists and opponents,

I am delighted to inform you that I have successfully forced Charlie Brobs to resign. I must tell you that it was no easy task as the man was bent in keeping his job at the VRA, along with little private Jacuzzi he installed in the room next to his office. He was also skeptical about the future of his unholy matrimony with one of his aides at the VRA, telling me in surprisingly humble tones that Joyce will “laugh” at him. In fact, he tried to take advantage of our longstanding friendship to insist that if I do not find him a job he won’t stand down. “J. A., you know I have sent my party on leave and the donors have almost forgotten about me. What do you expect me to do with my life when I step down?” he asked me. I told him I didn’t care a hoot.
