Let's hear it for Dr. Cortez and his initiative to bolster the economy with employment opportunities.
If more corporations were as far sighted as his there would be no end to what capitalism can accomplish!

I am considering applying for the position of nude female typist within your organisation. Could you give me some indication as to what you are looking for in a typist? I would find that most helpful.

Respectfully yours,

Perhaps you are naked. Perhaps. But that is only one qualification; there are others, you know.

Next: Can you type?

I also wish to apply for the position of female typist in your employ. Although a 6'2" post-op transsexual, I am physically attractive and fully capable of fulfilling all requirements of the job. My attorney, John S. Montoya, Esq., assures me that, as a consequence of recent court rulings, my condition should pose no problem during the hiring process. I look forward to hearing from you regarding my application!

Thanks to the current president, while we are equal opertunity, this only applies to skin color and gender. We can legally discrimate against such sinners as yourself. I sugest you re-attach your member, and stop this charade at once.

Thank you sir.

I am in no way a fake. I am the genuine article. Why do you hate the rich? Why do you hate those who have more then you? Are you jelious that I am in a hot tub *right now* surrounded by youthful blondes, while dictating this to my female typists? Are you jelious of my age? My young apperance? My foresight? My will and determination?

The answer is an obvious yes. You hate everything which makes america great. You hate the cities, the towers, the taxi's, the russle of the rich going from one summer home to the next. You sir are everything that is wrong in the world.

Go back to Russia you anti-capitalistic terrorist, lest you get reported

Mr. Cortez Sir.
Here at SomebodyCorp, we've been eyeing your small outfit for some time with a view to asset stripping, and now that your share price is scrapping along the floor, we're considering a takover of your shabby little outfit. How does twenty bucks & a packet of Fruit Loops sound?

Mr Cortez is on secondment at our fish frying division right now, but I will be making him available on a consultancy basis, in the very near future. Fret not, your deposit has secured him.

I was under the impression that the Martino Cortez Holding Company was privately owned. I realize a few subsidiaries have been spun off into publicly traded corporations, but my impression was that the parent concern was not for sale.

Do you think you could point me in the direction of the latest 10Q for the Martino Cortez Holding Company? Edgar doesn't seem to have any record of it.

While there have been some irregularities at Andersen, probably due to errors on the part of junior employees, something like a missed SEC filing would have been noticed immediately.

If, on the other hand, I was correct, and the Martino Cortez Corporation is privately held rather than publicly traded, then they are under no obligation to file a 10Q.

But you knew that, didn't you?

You're not really "with" the "programme", are you, SlaveOfRobot?

You see, I infiltrated Dr Cortez's secretive operations base disguised as a nude typist. In between e-mailing heads of state and Belgian massages, I perfected my egeanieuse mind-control "ray-gun". I have since enslaved Dr Cortez. As a fitting punishment for his lechery and sinful ways, I commanded him to sell me his entire enterprise, including the South African baby-seal skinning factory, for mere pennies.

So, regardless of whether Martina's accounts are "filed", or not, I have complete possession of the entire Cortez empire. Muha ha ha ha!

We've heard almost exactly the same delusional ramblings before, from one Mr. Milosevich.

I'd advise Dr. Cortez to adjust the dosage of the sedatives he's adding to the water in the moonjail.
