Couldn't have said it better myself...

At one point during a meeting today, one of the other IT guys slipped up and said, "I think that would be a better waste of our time." And let me just say that there's not a better summary of how things were going.

When the business folks outlined their solution, though, an image popped into my head. Imagine a yellow school bus, a Mercedes, and an old Plymouth side by side. Now lash them together with duct tape and try to drive them down the road. Oh, and imagine that when something breaks, they send you a dude in a hat with some more duct tape.

Fabulous solution. Dibs on the school bus. Wait a minute--I'm just going to get a helmet, because I think it's going to be a bumpy ride....
