Someone was in my office during the holiday party. Items of a personal nature are missing. It would be much wiser to come forward than have me find you on my own.

Fabulous news, everyone! I've found a purpose for my life. I'm not quite ready to leave my office yet, but the nicest young chap broke in and told me all about this fellow called Jesus! He said I needed it. I agree! Did you know he'll forgive you for everything? All those past transgression I regret deeply and thoroughly! Now I ought to see if I can have a looser-fitting pair of trousers delivered and then I'll be the happiest that happiest can be. I feel like I'm being strangled right now. Downstairs, you know. The no zone.

After the excitement of Halloween and a near stabbing on the way to Miss Davis' party, daily life hardly compares. Especially dress. Tantalising costumes replaced by Ministry-standard uniform. Some of you looked good enough to eat. A night of arson won't be nearly so much fun.

I can hardly wait to go home and change into my costume. The excitement around here is palpable. Will I be seeing any of you this evening? I look forward to it.

Such a shame there are the same complaints year after year. Some people just don't have what it takes to deal with the young ones. A group of ten were easily subdued merely with a reading from my favourite children's book. Perhaps I have the gift of narration; perhaps I have a je ne sais quoi that appeals to them. Who am I to say?

My name is Alastor Gumboil. You may call me Al if I like you. I'm one month and three days shy of thirty-four years old. I believe in forming a personal relationship with my co-workers. What is your name? What do you enjoy? I'd enjoy getting to know you.
I hope people don't begin to use these as a replacement for real conversation. Face-to-face contact is important; there's no substitute for being able to look the other person in the eyes. Reading their facial expressions as you converse. Smelling the perfume or cologne of the day. Feeling their presence and body heat. Let us not get lazy.
