I also agree. But, to sound like devil's advocate, we should plan ahead for the meeting. We know it is coming at the appointed time. So don't get too deep in your work. Possibly, scheduling the scrum meeting at a better time, say just after lunch, at the end of the day, when every one gets in may work out. The idea time would be before or after everyone has or had that inspirational moment. The hard part is making sure that all of the participants are present at the meeting time.

Best time of meeting is at start of work; typically 9AM or 9:30; Meetings in mid-day or end-of-day will cause confusion and will result in either ppl not starting work before SCRUM or having to undo the work post feedback from meeting.
Productivity of Meetings is directly proportional to percentage of brains present in it. Note, I am saying brains, not bodies. I too have had days when I was physically present and mentally absent

Mrs Wife is being a dirty stop out, so we will be dining on Toad In The Hole [Girls choice, not mine] and then a movie. The gin and the tonic is on ice ready to steady my nerves. There is also some scrumpy that may well need to be addressed.

That's older than I am!
So who picked that? And how did you manage to get away from "Epic - the Animated Drivel"?

Good choice, but I'd have gone with one of:
The Great Escape
The Battle Of The Bulge
Jason and The Argonauts

Would anyone care to translate this post into American English for this poor ignorant soul?
It sounds like Nagy is intending to perform unnatural acts with a toad during a movie, and he's planning on getting drunk beforehand.

Toad in the Hole - Sausages surrounded by batter; try google.
Drunk - as charged.
Scrumpy - It's a cider made with apples; well mostly apples.

Not if you know what Nagy considers a "sausage"

We know what you are like - Dalek still has the video from your last trip to Luton: the one with the goat and the rubber sink plunger?

Are you saying that you'd rather do it sober?

I wouldn't call that misogynistic; beer goggles are equal-opportunity -- I mean, even DD got a girl!

Interesting use of industrial robots to choreograph projectors, screens and a camera to attain very cool visual effects. Bot & Dolly[^]
I'd go see this.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Visual effects and illusion gone wild with today powerful computers...
It is truly amusing!
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

Do you remember an XKCD called "Time"[^]? Never did get it when I saw it...and it makes no sense at all today.
But...It's bigger than you thought.
Have a look at this: it's not a single frame comic - it's a 3099 frame story, which told itself at a rate of one frame per hour. So, unless you sat there for 130 days, you probably haven't seen it.
You can though: http://geekwagon.net/projects/xkcd1190/[^] Shows the whole thing!
