On and on he goes.....

Empire strikes back
If you look hard enough there is something interesting to see, to speak, to study, every single day. Today was an interesting day. For me. Mostly in the spoken sense and from a work perspective.

Today we had a 'reorganization' We haven't had one for quite some time - about six months - so I guess one was due. This interesting reorganization was merging two rather large empires into one much larger empire. So now the head honcho really is the big cheese. Not only that , he's my big cheese - assuming that someone, who reports to someone, who reports to someone, who reports to someone, thinks that "I'm worth it". I hope they do.

There's a hymn that is sometimes sung "Lord for the Years" which talks (sings) about praying for the Empire (later versions downsized this to Commonwealth). I've never liked it. I like more Spike Milligan's comment on receiving his CBE: "I can't see the sense in it [his honorary CBE] really. It makes me a Commander of the British Empire. They might as well make me a Commander of Milton Keynes - at least that exists.

Beware of captaining big empires which might (no, which will) one day crumble.
