Fed up.

Starting to feel better...
A little relieved...
Still grumpy, I have connection, but keep getting disconnected... Grrrrrrr!
Today is a pretty nice day!
I'm losing all those stupid games
That I swore I'd never play
Every now and then there is a new buzzword or phrase that you know is just not going to go away. Back in 2004, when George W. Bush came up with a "road map" for Middle East peace, you had the feeling it wasn't the last we had heard of that expression, and this has proven to be the case.
In recent years the "road map" expression has come in very useful for anyone who serves on a committee and is usually called upon to comment on something they don't know anything about. Even an incoherent mumble can sound quite authoritative as long as you lob in something like "road map" and a few other established buzzwords such as "window of opportunity", "grass roots" or the favourite in the past decade - "transparency". Another obtuse response to a pointed question you might be vague on is "Well, thats a matter of value judgement."
A mention of "re-engineering" or "synergy" also doesn't do any harm, as long as you don't have to explain what they mean. "Paradigm" is another trendy word that crops up despite the fact few people know what it means and even fewer how to pronounce it.
Then there are of course the hype phrases of which; "Finishing strong" & "Raising the bar" immediately come to mind.

The Moments of Dominion
That happen on the Soul
And leave it with a Discontent
Too exquisite — to tell —
