“I wanted them to see you before they saw you”
Her name was carefully crafted by her Mother
Who once had a job that showed her how easily
A name can determine
Who counts and who doesn't
Yeah, right!
One day, she applied online for a job, got an enthusiastic call in response
“You're perfect, can't wait to meet you”, she was told
The day she walked in for her interview
The receptionist wasn't receptive — not to her, anyway
What changed?
That's when she remembered her mother's words
And it suddenly became clear
A name can get you far
But not through a closed mind

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
