[High Praise! to GorT, via The Gorgomons]
Ya know, I flatter myself that I’m incomparably talented at making up funny stuff, but I also have heroes, the hems of whose garments I am unworthy to soil with my unclean touch: Frank J., Iowahawk, Monty Python, William Goldman, Dan Harmon, and the Futurama writers, to name a few.
Now I must add to the list BLS Acting Commissioner John M. (Jack) Galvin.
Because if I were to make up a list of “green jobs”, I guarantee it would not even be half as funny as this.

Sheer. Comic. Genius.
Pity he’s serious.
Meanwhile, I just can’t stop picturing Galvin as an architect.
The lobotomy that Mr. Galvin apparently had was a ‘green job.’
BLS Director? Sure that isn’t BS director?
Hookers are used, therefore they are green jobs and deserve a subsidy!!
BEER! Beer is agreen job!
Bacon! Bacon is recycled pig! Therefore it is green!! YAY!!111!!
Q: If you’re job is to gin up as many phony definitions about what constitutes a ‘green’ job…does that count as a green job? A: Yes
Q: I used ‘you’re’ in error, instead of ‘your’…does that count as a green job? A: No, but it does prove I have a public school education.
I vote Issa for hero.
does beating up hippies count as a green job?
only after their bruises start “blooming”.
You’ve got to give Mr Issa credit, he relentless.
ISSA: So, if you work in an illegal toxic waste dump, but you’re married to someone who’s first cousin has a friend who used to know a guy who sold office supplies to a company that makes solar panels, is that a green job?
GALVIN: Yes.
