| Ann Arbor, MI - The recent downturn in the economy has caused many
            corporations to rationalize their employees.  Even Office Jesus
            has been unable to escape the ax.  Once the VP
            of Coffee Making and Security at Selby Communications, Office
            Jesus is now homeless and forced to work miracles for food.  Shortly after
            firing Office Jesus, President of Selby Communications, Henry Thomas
            said, "Our sales numbers were dipping and we needed to make
            cutbacks to maintain profitability.  The guy made some damn
            good coffee, but that wasn't helping the bottom line."  More
            recently Selby Communications filed bankruptcy after sales plummeted
            and a swarm of locust destroyed their inventory. In addition, Henry
            Thomas has been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor.
 Office Jesus was unable to find work in Lufkin, so he journeyed
            north.  "I moved to Ann Arbor [Michigan] because they have
            a lot of coffee shops where I thought I could find work," said
            Jesus.  "But things haven't worked out too well. I couldn't
            make enough money at Espresso Royale to keep paying the rent, and
            once I didn't have a permanent address the bastards fired me." Since being terminated Office Jesus has been living in a shelter
            and working miracles on street corners for spare change.  "Curing
            blindness is a nice skill to have, but unless your landlord is blind,
            it doesn't pay the rent." said Office Jesus. "You'd be surprised at how thankless these people are," continued
            Office Jesus, "I'll cure their cancer and they'll give me 50
            cents.  Another guy was down here saying he'd have me arrested
            for practicing medicine without a license.   Luckily for me
            he had a pretty bad accident before he could do that." Editor's note:  Shortly after this article was printed
              Office Jesus was contacted by several bankrupt dot com corporations
              to see if he could resurrect their businesses.
