      Don't worry - I don't get it either. ColinMackay.net Scottish Developers are looking for speakers for user group sessions over the next few months. Do you want to know more?

        The manager is clueless. I think its a rip off 'MAD magazines' 'snappy answers to stupid questions'. :)

          I didn't find it funny either - the only explanation I could think of was that the PHB had asked Wally about the new Centre of Excellence, and Wally gave him the line about the Presidential Library. :confused:

            The PHB obviously asked Wally what a centre of excellance is, Wally then obviously told the PHB it was centre honouring the PHB, Wally then explains to his co-workers, that once the PHB figures out that Wally told him a falsehood, he will probabily stop asking Wally questions. Which forfills Wally's raison d'etre ... not to do any work. Regards Ray "Je Suis Mort De Rire" Blogging @ Keratoconus Watch

              I took it this way: Senior management asked the PHB to create a centre of excellence for the company. For an example of what they had in mind see this article to about the Audi centre of excellence in Glasgow[^]. The PHB didn't know what a centre of excellence was so asked Wally. Wally amused himself by telling the PHB that it equated to a Presedential library[^], a rather narcissitic practice popular stateside.

                  I too thought along the same lines, but that doesn't strike me as particularly funny. Of course, it shows that the PHB is an idiot, which we all know. :) Cheers, Vikram, Voice of Reason.

                    Its funny because it re-affirm Wally as lazy and the PHB as an idiot, .... its not _that_ funny to be fair ... Regards Ray "Je Suis Mort De Rire" Blogging @ Keratoconus Watch
