- Bio
- Despite having been blessed with both average looks, and a larger than normal head, Audrey Ohley has only risen to a moderate level of success as low-level government bureaucrat in a little-known and toothless federal organization. Unable even to extract that small amount of joy from her job that most government employees get -- namely ruining innocent people’s lives over misplaced decimal points and drunkenly dialed phone calls to Iraq -- Audrey contents herself instead by merely irritating the people who pay the taxes who pay her salary. “Prove to me that you bought those bananas in Ecuador,” she asks. “How many people did you interview for the stockroom clerk position in 1999,” she inquires. Not only are the questions irrelevant, but so are the answers, whatever they turn out to be. Audrey’s job is merely to ask them, and record the answers.

Huevos con Fuego
Obama did it. He had a dream. He's making it happen. But what did I ever do? The time for making dreams come true is now! But now that I need them, I can’t find them. I could’ve sworn that I had some dreams around the house someplace -- in the… Read full post »

Sometimes Laziness is a Bad Thing
I fell out of my chair again today. Not such an unusual occurrence actually, as I tend to fall out of my chair every couple of months or so. Actually, it is more correct to say that both the chair and I fall over together -- I don't just fall out of… Read full post »
