It’s been said that managing engineers is like trying to herd cats: we’re independent, suspicious, and we only do things because we want to. I was reminded this week about a great ad that aired during the SuperBowl a few years back… all about cat herding. Enjoy!

It’s like a scene out of the movie Madagascar… from the Associated Press:
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands – Amsterdam police say 15 camels, two zebras and an undetermined number of llamas and potbellied swine briefly escaped from a traveling Dutch circus after a giraffe kicked a hole in their cage.
Police spokesman Arnout Aben says the animals wandered in a group through a nearby neighborhood for several hours after their 5:30 a.m. breakout.
The animals were back at the circus later Monday after being rounded up by police and circus workers with the assistance of dogs. Aben says neighbors fed some of the animals — which he said was a bad idea — but they were tame and nobody was hurt.
I have to agree with Bruce Schneier, “Are llamas really that hard to count?”.
Well, the French saved our butts during the Revolutionary War… I’ll give them credit for that (read more on Wikipedia). However, I still like to poke fun at them.
Happy 4th!!!

Remember comedian Jim Breuer? He did AC\DC singing the “Hokey Pokey”. Well, here is is again impersonating Metallica singing “If You’re Happy and You Know It”… with the band members in the audience.
