Thanks for bringing this document with my name on it, and one of my fooler addresses, to my attn.

NONE of what this guy says about me is true,

This is some of the shoddiest 'work' I have ever seen,

Won't they be surprised if they look me up and find some old black panthers instead?

I find it rather easy to portray a businessman. Being bland, rather cruel and incompetent comes naturally to me.

Margaret Atwood's Oryx and Crake: One of her characters asks, "As a species we're doomed by hope, then?" By hope? Well, yes. Hope drives us to invent new fixes for old messes, which in turn create ever more dangerous messes. Hope elects the politician with the biggest empty promise; and as any stockbroker or lottery seller knows, most of us will take a slim hope over prudent and predictable frugality. Hope, like greed, fuels the engine of capitalism.
