Nothing better than taking part in 'onboarding' ceremonies. With an earlier employer these ceremonies bordered on waterboarding. The freshlings quickly found themselves being 'baptized' in the fire fighter's water reservoir.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.

As in Martini.
Does this mean we will se you here every now and then.
This place has also been drying up.

The perfect Dry Martini is 3 parts Gin and a gentle nod in the direction of France.

But is it Gordons or Beefeaters?
Or do you prefer to drink a Juniper bush run through a chipper? (Hernö Gin[^])

It's pouring down, so the cat wants in every five minutes to be dried off (and if you don't want a soggy computer, drying him is a good idea).
I'm going down with a cold, and feel like wet noodles.
And I've just spent an hour trying to track down an obscure bug in the reporting code.
Only to find it's not in the code, it's a data error.
Which is worse, because there are all sorts of checks to ensure that bad data doesn't get into the system in the first place, so now I have to work out how and why they got bypassed, which is going to take much, much longer than fixing complicated code...

That will teach you to question the wisdom of someone who is related to lions and tigers.

That's nowt.
Mu viscous hound caught a squirrel yesterday and had got quite a way through the torso before Mrs Wife separated him from it.
In unrelated other news, he was sick all over the kitchen last night.

Well, think of it this way.
- It'll eventually stop raining and the cats will be dry.
- You'll get over your cold
- You'll have discovered the data issue.
And then, it'll be a glorious ![Sunshine | [little ray of sunshine]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/sunshine.gif) day!

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
