Just wondering?

Ahem! Yours is not to wonder who or why.

For the record, I did. The rumors of my demise have been greatly
exagerated. Actually, I've finally decided to retire and Mr. Cain has
been serving as my part time assistant for some time. There are just
a few items to wrap up before I turn things completely over to him and
make his provisional appointment permanent.

The main issue has been who to appoint as his primary opponent. You
know, Satan, The Devil, The Dark One, etc., etc. The current
appointee has served well and with extreme devotion for nearly an
eternity but has tired of the game. My suggestion to Mr. Cain has
been to appoint you, Mr. Sokolich. You have all the prerequistes in
terms of an evil, obsessive nature but the question as far as Mr. Cain
is concerned is one of competence. He thinks you have shown
unblemished intent but your track record of accomplishment is weak in
virtually all areas. I believe that you could grow into the job and
find deep satisfaction in all the havoc you could create but Mr. Cain
has his doubts. He thinks you will be all too easily beaten and
provide inadequate opposition to keep our side at its peak
performance.

If this position interests you, by all means feel free to expand upon
your qualifications. If not, think again.


Yours Truly,

God
