Mark today in your calendar as a very important day to remember in the Future!!!

Today was a great day for our understanding of the Future. As previously advertised, it was an Official Open House at the Office.

Due to yesterday's wonderful beautiful snowfall (the weather has been worse than glum for weeks), the general spirit of the staff was lifted, and business proceeded at a happy skipping pace.

Last night (Saturday) we installed a sign at the local gas station to draw locals to the office for the open house. We didn't expect anyone to come, but we thought it was a good gesture.

On the walk back from the gas station, the advertising department had a great idea: we could make invitations for consultations and tie them to the doorknobs of all the neighbors. So like a goodwilled swat team in the night, at midnight we divided and delivered invitations everywhere we passed on our one hour neighbor search. We didn't forget the forest people and gypsies in the forest either- we hung invitations on the trees at eye level.

This morning we began by preparing the office for openness. We packed our usual box with the usual tea and safety lamp, but because today was a special day, we also packed a few pieces of cake. In the future, we think people will need to eat less cake, but we decided to serve it anyway just to lure the locals.

The lure of the cake didn't really work, and neither did the advertising campaign or the invitations. However, the snow blew in a local man named Lucien, and by chance he had time for an interview. Details on the consultation to come.

It was clear that he really appreciated the cake. The expensive humidification system in the office caused his glasses to fog up a little, but he continued the interview with blind perseverance. Thank you Lucien!

After that meeting, before darkness ended the possibility of visitors, the entire staff from the Future decided that we needed to approach our consultations differently. With more spirit, more action, more CORNERING.

Like a used Bible Sales staff, this Sunday we began to go door to door to offer at home consultations. We began with a neighbor, Rauni, who is the village's General Physician. She invited us in for a home visit/ consultation.

Before it was dark, we departed for Ana's house where we demanded an interview also. She is the art teacher at all the local schools in the village.

We will give a profile of all three interviews in the days to come.

The final news of the day comes to us from the administrative desk... There has been a promotion! We would like to announce that Miyuki Kido, previously a part time secretary for The Future Unincorporated, has been elevated to the title of

Permanent Executive Presidential Secretary.
Congratulations Miyuki, and thanks for all your hard work!
