The Moorebrook company's stock has been sinking again. It's not in the red though, it's never in the red. Just dipping. Moorebrook is an old company, been around for ages. They started off as a stationery supply, selling greeting cards wrapping paper, special print paper and the like. They eventually became the standard for holiday supplies. `` Everything from New Years to Christmas, you can celebrate with Moorebrook''. That was their catchphrase in the late 60's. 
 
 Moorebrook expanded their trade over time. They eventually became *the* supplier of some of the most basic commodities in the world. Things you do n't often think about, but everyone needs. Everything from office supplies to basic medical equipment. They own it all. But nobody really knows that they own the market. All of the other companies are owned through shell companies and trusts. The name is only attached to the holiday supply business. They all think of Moorebrook as a cheery, festive company that wants you to be happy on the holidays. But the scary part is that they own those too. 
 
 They take holidays. Own them. Change them so you need Moorebrook to do it `` right''. Most of the holidays celebrated have been altered or down right fabricated by Moorebrook to sell you more wrapping paper. Valentine's Day? The boxes for the chocolate made by Moorebrook. Saint Patrick's Day? Moorebrook beer labels. Angstroms' Festival? Moorebrook cornucopias. Dia De Los Muertos? Run by Moorebrook's Mexico firm. All of it is owned, trademarked, and produced by one company. 
 
 How do I know this? I'm the leader of the Holiday Team. It's my job to design, create and oversee implementation of the holiday. That last part of the job description is where the magic happens. Using the vast resources of the company, I can alter historic documents, create elaborate events in the past, invent traditions, pay families to pretend they've been celebrating `` Holiday X'' for years and invite their neighbors over for the festivities to share in their families culture. This is how it starts. There's now a lineage of people celebrating it in, it's in the history books! You know a family that celebrates it, they invited you over after they moved in next door! It's a fun holiday, I can spend time with my family with this new tradition I discovered! Then several years later, everyone knows Angstroms' Festival. 
 
 My latest work was creating Lorenz's Summit. A holiday with it's roots in the history of Germany's rise as a territory all it's own. The great leader known only as `` Lorenz'' united the area once known only as `` The Rhine'' and rebelled against the Roman Empire to claim their sovereignty. On the last day of the 8th month, Lorenz led his armies up to a hill located in rural Germany to meet with the leaders of the Roman empire. What started as a peaceful negotiation, led to a surprise attack as German warriors stormed the hill and captured the Roman officials. 
 
 That night, after dispatching a messenger to the Roman empire declaring their freedom from rule, they celebrated with whatever they could find from the Roman caravan. They found boar, olives, horse meat, and many vegetables and fruits. And since then, the Germans have celebrated their liberation from Rome by eating roast boar and horse meat adorned with olives. The children play games, reenacting the famous surprise attack led by Lorenz, and sending messengers to their parents by strapping kind notes to pets. 
 
 None of this is actually real. It is believable because it is *based* on history. Germany did become independent of Rome, but Lorenz never existed. Lorenz's summit never happened. The Germans did n't feast on boar and horse on the night of the last day of the 8th month. Those that `` did'' were paid a sizable sum to claim they did, and share it with the world. After that initial investment, our projections look to increase our yearly profits by 4 %. I'm probably going to get a bonus or a raise. Maybe some paid vacation so I can celebrate Lorenz's Summit with my family.
