    Just came out of a meeting where new management styles were mentioned, Kanban in particular. That goes referenced an 'Can Can', which made me think of Can Can dancers. And then my Scottish heritage kicked in... Think about men in kilts doing the Can Can dance...

          Where is the mind bleach?

          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. --Winston Churchill

            Mind Bleach[^] There are other 'options' than just "nature"...

              Sounds like a Monty Python sketch.

                Laugh away. One day, maybe tomorrow, maybe ten years from now. There will be a tap on your shoulder that you never expected. And when you turn ... The men of the 3rd Foot and Mouth regiment[^] will show you what they've got!

                  As a child, our refrigerator had a spring loaded latch on the door; newer ones seems to have a magnetic seal. My older brother told our younger brother to stick his finger in the latch; when the younger brother did that, the latch snapped and hit his finger. Much yelling ensued... Our Dad said to the older brother, "Some day, I'll even the score with you for him...." I reminded my older brother of that periodically until our Dad passed...

                    Kanban isn't exactly "new". We ran screaming away from it at the office years ago.
