I recently learned something disturbing. My neighbors’ pet rooster gets off watching fried chicken commercials. And I thought, “Wow! Dark meat!”

Wolf Words
Aside from publishing the best stories anyone could read, every good writer hopes to make a positive impact on language, usually the language in which they write, by doing what comes naturally to us: creating new words. It’s not just a matter of adding words to the dictionary; it’s a matter of expanding the popular lexicon and encouraging others to think beyond what they learned in school.
Thus, The Chief is proud to announce that I have created 2 new words for the English language:
Complisult – a compliment that’s actually an insult.
Example: “That’s a beautiful outfit you’re wearing. I had one just like it – YEARS ago!”
Insultiment – what sounds like an insult is actually a compliment.
Example: “Gosh, you look like death microwaved over. I know you’re feeling better, though, so I’m happy for you.”
I’d love to hear everyone’s honest and constructively critical response! What do you folks think?

Bus This
An incubus is a malevolent male spirit who has sex with a woman, while she’s either asleep or unconscious. A succubus is a malevolent female spirit who does the same with men. Over the years I’ve been…um…shall we say touched by both types of spirits. Therefore, I guess you could say I’ve been bused from one end to the other!

Just Fools
I couldn’t resist sharing this from artist, writer and fellow blogger Art Browne. There’s an odd sense of truth to it, since just about everyone in the Trump Administration is crazy, rich and White! Of course, there’s nothing wrong with being White! Or even crazy! Hell, I’m pretty much both! So is Art! I told him recently we’re both HUNG: handsome, understanding, nice guys. Love you, brother!

Okay, everybody. This just got serious. I mean – REAL SERIOUS! Audit is scheduled to come in after Labor Day & I know they’re going to look at this contract & see everything that went wrong. We have to figure a way to work around it. We just have to. The customer would have nailed us to the floor if we had any delays in delivery. Even a 1 day delay. All those errors could have cost us!

Re: Contract XTN-4977 Budget
Steve,
Yes, I still have that original sheet. You didn’t know because you didn’t see the final totals. The cost overruns for each testing mode weren’t included in what we gave to you. So that’s on us. And apparently that’s part of the problem. David is pointing out the fact Audit will ask why we ran over budget on the testing. But I don’t know how we’ll get around it.

Sadly yes that is what I’m saying. Besides it’s a 20 mil contract. Everything was supposed to be right from the beginning. Long before that 1st delivery! We should know with this client & their global reach they don’t have time for little crap like a programming error. They were taking a chance with us anyway, being their first time with us. We really could’ve lost that contract!!!!

Re: Contract XTN-4977 Budget
Indeed that does sound pathetic. In fact it is pathetic! For any project no matter the size we’ve always budgeted for retests.
Where did the breakdown occur?

I don’t know where the breakdown occurred, but it did. We still need to work around to explain to audit. Remember, this is a $20 m contract! We HAVE to come up with a solution. Audit will rip us a new one when they see that $1 m overrun.

I’m still hyperventilating about that 1 mil! If someone screwed up somewhere, then we need to find out who it was and what they did. And how did it get past QA/QC. You’re not suggesting we redo the figures are you? That data has already been input into the main system. It’s something we can’t just recall and say there’s a slight miscalculation.

Hope with Truth and Justice
In the Valley of Hope, Truth was an elderly woman who traveled on her Horse of Justice; telling the villagers what they often heard from the outside world was wrong, inaccurate, immoral and even dangerous. Whether it was lies about medical issues or dubious declarations made the Valley’s appointed leaders, Mother Truth always settled the villagers’ fears. They had trusted her for as long as they knew and had no doubted she held their best interests close to her heart and soul.
Then, a new group of people ascended to the village leadership. They were loud and angry and disdainful of their predecessors. They mocked the people who had come before them with vulgar language and degenerative names. At first the villagers merely viewed them as pure buffoons; clowns who loved the attention. But, after a while, some of the valley residents began to listen to this new crop of leaders. Then they started believing them. And they began repeating the claims espoused by these new self-styled leaders. More and more of the residents started to believe these people. After all, the latter group was wealthy and educated – they must know of what they speak. They could not be lying. The words these individuals used, the images they painted of a world out of control – all of it frightened the valley residents.
One afternoon Mother Truth tore through the Valley atop Justice and frantically told the villagers that the crescendo of lecherous voices from of these new leaders spewed out falsities. “They do not understand what they say!” she cried. “They are merely greedy and arrogant! They want nothing more than to secure their own futures and their own wealth!”
“What shall we do?” asked the people.
“Stop believing every single thing they say!” Mother Truth replied. “Think and research for yourselves!”
Stunned, the crowd suddenly and unexpectedly metamorphosed into an angry mob. They attacked the old sage unmercifully and hurtled her into a catacomb, before sending Justice into the fields to reap the crops.
Eventually, some of the villagers realized they had made a mistake. “Mother Truth has never lied to us,” they moaned. “Her very name reveals the nature of her soul. We must free her.”
With the help of these renegades, Mother Truth escaped the catacombs and rescued her horse from an orchard.
Defiant, she rode back into the village, her head held high and her silver hair fluttering in the wind.
Troubled by their own behavior, the valley residents came to accept a painful reality – Truth may hurt, but hope always wins out, and justice plows forward.

Aim
As a freelance technical writer, I’ve learned to consolidate the myriad words people throw at me for their requested project. It’s a valued – and necessary – attribute, since people are always in such a hurry these days and want quick answers to even the most complex of matters.
For example, a few years ago a client contracted me to develop a troubleshooting guide. They digitally handed me a slew of documents; literally a mish-mash of typed and handwritten notes about a software upgrade they wanted for their external customers.
“I need as much of this condensed as you possibly can,” the project manager instructed. The software users were busy people (in the tech world?!) and no one had time to fumble through reams of (digital) paper. “No pressure,” she added reassuringly.
Of course! No pressure. What’s that? This was a troubleshooting guide, after all – not a historical romance.
Thus, I scrounged through the morass of information for a few days and – as difficult as it was – I actually managed to fit all the verbiage onto one page:
“Aim better.”
Odd, but I haven’t heard from them since.
