Friday fun - Boardroom beats.

A bit of Friday fun.
Comments using musical lines have been creeping into the workplace.
{Have they? No idea - but I saw these and would have given them a smiley thumbs up if I knew how.}

"Don't ask him. He can't even remember if the Buffalo Girls go round the outside or the inside."
+
"And last item on the agenda today.. did we ever actually get to the bottom of who let the dogs out?"
+
"we will still need you and we will still feed you, when you're sixty-four...  But at sixty-five you're redundant."
+
"we missed the last quarter..So now we know what it feels like when doves cry.."
+
"Whine on you lazy diamond."

And a favourite that happened in a dull meeting some years back. When the 
'Are there any questions ?' was asked, someone replied..
 " Er..yes ..What is luh uhh uhh uhh uhhve anyway?  Does anybody, love anybody, anyway?"

And a film one from 'As Good As It Gets' that I liked. Some reps were trying to sell us a product, something like the amstrad emailer,  that they couldn't really explain why we would need it. 

"Go sell hazy someplace else. We're all stocked up here."

Any more workplace lyrics, quotes or quips into the comments.
