63. It's probably the word "Ministry" that turns them off.

Around here, we make them "Departments."

In college, I worked the Summer Session (continuing education), and we had "ministries" for all our positions. I was the Minister of Finance (bookkeeping), and my sweetie was the Minister of Transportation (he went to the airport and picked up the teachers).

Perhaps we should create Ministerial positions?

I'd make certain that money for taking care of our own people was there, and no illegal war companies like Halliburton would line their pockets in war profits.

85. UN Ambassador - California Peggy

She can wow them with her charm, diplomacy and grace. But she can always drop the F-Bomb when it's required.
