It was always arranged that I would get a very important phone call and it required at least an hour or more to help that poor soul > my wife.

As far as austerity programs, how about the next time senior management comes to town we show off our cost cutting zeal by giving them a bag of white bread, a jar of no-name peanut butter and a knfe for their business lunch?? In all seriosity..... The firm I'm with does a once-a-year (not Xmas) pot luck, highlighting dishes from different countries. Since we have representatives from most of the UN countries the eatin' is pretty great. Changed my mind about pot lucks.

There always seems to be one poor soul who obviously never gets to eat out on a regular basis. They start at one end of the buffet line, and throw a non-stop spray of cookie crumbs, veggie chunks, and other compost out the 'discharge chute' as they cruise through the goodies, 'taste-testing' for everyone else...NICE!
