Certainly not as good as 'Alcohol - the cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems'

That is the truth.

I have my computer set up to play "I'm not normally a praying man, but if you're up there, please save me Superman " for exclamations (try to close a document without saving, that sort of thing).

A few months back we were trying to get a CD of sounds procured for a system we were building. The process for getting even a $10 CD procured is insane, and after a couple months we still didn't have it. But we needed sounds for certain events and we were giving a demo to some Generals. So we downloaded some .wav files of Simpsons phrases. We figured it would be an obvious indicator that we needed that CD, so maybe some of the powers-that-be that attended the demo would do something about it.
