@batye like the Mary had a little lamb song. 

"It followed her to school one Day / Which was against The rules."

Re: breakfast
@Mike: Meanwhile, here in liberal, sheltered eastern Massachusetts (the Boston area, anyway), the urban elite around here either 1) has no idea what you're talking about and/or 2) scoffs at such things.

No pig farmers 'round these parts.

Re: Entangled metaphor
@John: Ahhhhhhhh!!!  I only just noticed that brilliant wordplay/juxtaposition!

Kudos to you, Mike!  You are an artist.

Re: The longer run often gets the short end of the stick
@John: Here's something really interesting, on that thought.  According to recent research conducted jointly by LogMeIn/Xively and Machina Research, for most companies that have turned to IoT solutions, the reasons had nothing to do with cost savings, efficiency, or any of the other oft-hyped benefits of IoT.  Rather, most companies that have turned to IoT have done so solely to pursue a new revenue opportunity dependent upon IoT.

Just goes to show what gets attention in C-suite and how execs tick.

Re: Hmmm
@Mike: My evidence is definitely anecdotal, but the observation was based on executives with whom I have spoken.

In general, my (sheltered, anecdotal, biased -- granted) observation has so far been if they/their companies aren't already doing something with digital transformation, it's likely not happening any time soon.

I'm pretty confident that there never was another greased pig contest inside of the high school after that one.

John, the county fair just got over here. They did have a greased pig contest for kids. Many years ago when I was in high school we had a greased pig contest inside of the school. We learned that pigs don't run well on linoleum and that greased pig contests in confined areas lead to injuries.
