How about I lock up the moral right s on all of the above with "Michael J.s" in front of each of them!

(Or is that derivative?...)

:-)

You can have the moral rights to same with my name in front and that way we'll kept each other honest...

I was amazed that there were no Google hits on any of them. Isn't _everything_ in Google by now??

Do each of these suggest actual methods or concepts to you, or are they simply "in the style" of current catchphrases?

I realize that the point is there's no way to tell, but I'm curious anyway.

Was this stimulated by today's Dilbert cartoon?

Most are actual methods I'm using, and decided to name. Didn't see the Dilbert, but I'll look it up!

wise decision -- some I might question but will never the less make for interesting discussions
