It was a very bad joke. Attempting to paint a happy face, they didn't realize their mistake until it farted.
This should make your readers happy - a blog just about Terry!

Keep up the blog! I worked at OSPI for almost 8 years, left this past January. At least Terry has moved on from the horrid blue/purple suit she’s worn religiously for the past 12 years. Not that she needs to wear the new “it’ suit every day… I also read the post about the Director of Network Operations and his apologetic emails regarding network status. He’s a moron… so is his boss.
This was filed under new $100,000 position at OSPI. Hurray...Lets have a 'planting' party for Chris from Pearson. Are we ready for more excitement - How about WASL II: The Revenge perfect for Halloween.
We would like to welcome a new staff member to the Division of Assessment and Student Information. This Monday Christopher Hanczrik joined our team in a newly-created position as the Director of Assessment Operations.
Christopher’s responsibilities will be to direct the operational portion of the assessment system, including supervising the State Test Coordinator, Kimberly DeRousie. Many of you may already know Christopher, who has resigned from Pearson and moved from Austin for the opportunity to work with us at OSPI.
While at Pearson, he has recently managed the reporting system on a contract with the State of Texas, but before that he was the project manager for the WASL program when the Riverside contract was phasing out and the Pearson contract was just beginning.
All of us who have worked with Christopher know him to be a very capable and extremely customer-oriented person. The new position Christopher is filling will give Robin Munson the opportunity to focus her fulltime efforts on issues related to student information and data analysis.
The scope of her work in this area has been expanding exponentially as we move forward with comprehensive student information systems and longitudinal databases. The volume of work in this area shows no signs of diminishing, and requires more and more of Robin’s time.
Likewise, assessment operations have become increasingly complex, and will get even more so with the new assessment contracts. We didn’t want to get just anybody for this new position, and (to use a phrase appropriate for early April) feel we have “hit a home run” with Christopher. He is really looking forward to working with us and with all of you. As you get a chance to interact with Christopher, please welcome him to our state and to our work.

The joke is on the Seattle Times - here's for more mud in your face.

Oh yes just what the state needs another Pearson Influence.
Another Titanic crew member comes to the Bridge. No the ship is still going down.
Even the crew are tired of Captain Iceberg. Perhaps a sign of TB's troubles that will follow later. I'm positive there'll be more than one victory celebration when TB gets ousted.
