Survived the all-day meeting, which we actually ended at 4:30, instead of 5:30. It was pretty good - we got most of an outline hammered out, which is a Good Thing. It got a little punchy after lunch (we had pizza delivered, though surreptiously because we're not allowed food in the classrooms). Example:

R: So how are we going to get people to buy our product?
K: Convince them of the value-added proposition... if that doesn't work-
Me: Teddy bears. Give 'em all teddy bears.
K: I was going to say threaten, coerce-
R: Tony Soprano. That's the answer.
Me: No teddy bears?
K: The Sopranos might be more effective than teddy bears.

Okay, it was funny at the time. At any rate, when we were discussing our marketing plan, K suggested we buy time on the Superbowl to advertise our very regional product and then somehow the conversation veered to EDS' cat herding commercial and then I found the cat herding game. Play it. You'll like it. Just a word of caution: turn down your speakers or your computer will heehaw at you.
