In the US, todays the Thanksgiving holiday. As I learned from A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, its supposed to be about friendship, family, and being grateful for what you have. In common practice, its more about gorging yourself.

While I was perusing our inbox, I saw that Matthew sent me a flow chart that represented a set of requirements from his sales team. Immediately upon opening it, I said, Thank goodness I dont have to work on this.

So, today, whether you celebrate the orgy of American excess or not, celebrate this fact. Youve never been handed a requirements document this bad. I hope.
