"Mummy, I’m Naked in my UML Place!"

If:

  • You are a former OpenCola employee of the first generation (the

    generation who worked at the original office at Bloor and Church

    Streets)

  • The title of this article has any meaning to you

…then

you might want to contact me. I have the videos, and they’re still just

as funny and disturbing as they were four years ago. I have never been

able to read about the Unified Markup Language without almost bursting into laughter ever since (an amazing thing, since UML is decidedly un-funny).

The videos are courtesy the greatest Roshambo player on Earth.
