WASHINGTON -- The District of Columbia awarded Darrin J. Friedman his District broker certification today after passing the law portion of his DC Broker exam, finally putting to rest any question of just, as one witness called it, “who the MAN is”.
“I’m just relieved,” said Friedman shortly after exam success. “I mean, really, it feels great. I feel like singing songs about rainbows ands what’s on the other side!”
Muggle born and raised, Friedman has long been known to have difficulty with written examination, and rumblings of late have made the usually charismatic leader question his ability to pass his O.W.L’s.
Dominique Thomas, the Office Administrator for the CB Chevy Chase branch, and long time supporter of Mr. Friedman said she had confidence and resolve, saying before hand that she knew this time would be it. “I just felt something different this time. We all knew he could do it, but knowing and doing are two different things,” she said. “After all, he did stay up an finish Book 7 in 72 hours. If he could do that, he could do anything.”
Now, with this behind him, many have shown the same kind of enthusiastic outpouring of support. In fact, one agent in particular, Sherman Mcdaniel, echoed the relief, “It’s about frickin time!”
Though Friedman says he doesn’t feel any different, and that he firmly believes he is no smarter today than he was yesterday, the palpable energy surrounding the triumph is obvious to anyone familiar with him, and the branch itself.
In fact sources close to Paul V (the President grand poo-bah of big-blue) reported him to be ecstatic, saying, also, but with much more conviction, “It’s about frickin time!”
SO, as July ends and the summer begins to set in its final month of lounging, swimming, and vacation, Friedman can finally, and with quiet confidence, answer his phone as, “This is Darrin, DC Broker,” which, as many have reported is all he ever wanted to say.
