Moving a 19th-century armchair away from the mahogany-paneled wall as he rearranged his new office Wednesday, recently elected House Speaker Paul Ryan reportedly stumbled upon a half-finished escape tunnel leading out of the Speakers chambers. Oh, man, look at this thingit must go back 100 feet! said Ryan, who found the makeshift passageway strewn with numerous worn-down Montblanc fountain pens that had apparently been used to chip away at the plaster wall, the marble and brick of the Capitol buildings foundation, and the packed earth beyond. Looks like he was digging away from Capitol Hill and toward the Amtrak station. God, he must have spent years on this. At press time, a startled Ryan was said to be shrieking loudly after opening his offices Lincoln-era cherry armoire and finding himself eye-to-eye with a homemade, business-suit-clad dummy that his predecessor had intended to prop up behind his desk to provide sufficient cover when making a getaway.
