My gold lamé macramé résumé!

Back off, everybody. I said, back OFF!
Yesterday I blogged about the “Best job in the world,” where you get to live in luxury on a paradise island and blog about the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef.
Who would have guessed so many people would be interested, it would crash the Website advertising the post?
Well, you’re all too late. The job is mine. I got confirmation today from the tourism folks. They said:
“Gidday, Mate! We’re thrilled to offer you the “best job in the world.” Your résumé was clearly better than 220 million others we received. We were most impressed that you are…
- More powerful than a locomotive
- Engaged to Nicole Kidman
- Recommended by four out of five dentists
- Heir to the throne of England
“The job is all yours, Chief Justice Basler, as soon as we check your references. Congrats, and we’ll see you in July, which of course is really February in Australia!”
So, there you have it. Everybody else just go away, unless you have some Buckingham Palace letterhead stationery I can borrow.
Get a grip! Join the Oddly Enough blog network!

I suspect what the Aussies actually want is a VLOG. A video blog, preferably using an underwater camera some of the time. But you’d only have to post once a week, plenty of time to sit around and suck down Foster’s with Nicole. Best of luck, Mate!
Well, the shark certainly looks like he’s eating it up…
Remember Bob, always play to your audience.
