TQR: Introductory letter
Hello,
My name is Theodore Q. Rorschalk, thus the title of this blog. Aside from the pun, it also points to the fact that I recently started an e-zine [www.tqrstories.com] that, I believe, will blow the status quo all to hell. That is, if enough investors catch on to the uniqueness of the concept, enough venture capitalists buy into the competitive, ego-maniacal thrill of it all, and my staff of mostly talented capital managers (Doomey hates that nomenclature and refers to himself as a broker, the prima donna) can bring themselves to make use of their offices in the region known as the Free Market.
Getting the public at large to get excited about progress is often like trying to pass a camel through the eye of a needle. Yes, I know the simile is played. But it's true! Move the end line those poor slobs have been crab walking up to for years and they are going to get just a little bit er, crabby, sister. But we're not here to make friends. We're here to move product! And our product is capital. [lingo: capital equals 'stories', the only capital throughout history that has stood the test of time] It's simple. The whole vetting process is capital, the interactions between the cap managers are capital; the fruit of all our labor is capital put on a special pedestal therein, known as Capital Gain. Yes, it's not what you're used to, but neither is realizing the epic beauty of solving quadratic equations. If you are willing to stick to it, and work, the returns are immeasurably satisfying.
Anyhow, that's just a bit of background information that may get you jump started into the corporate culture of capital-grabbing TQR. Or it may have just made you want to vomit confusion and angst. That's fine. If you don't want to work for this piece of literary/genre satori, go back to your humdrum lingo and once-every-quarter moments of capital excitement that quickly die, wherein the e-zine floats around cyberspace, a ghost ship, manned by unread capital and asleep-at-the-wheel capitans.
What I want this blog to accomplish is to show you the behind-the-scenes of the TQR behind-the-scenes transparencies. That is, giving you all a little background info on the day-to-day operation of the e-zine itself. As well as getting you up to speed on the lingo, the process and the wonder of it all. Please, sit back and enjoy the show.
Yours truly, Theo
