Ok, that was too easy.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Don't eat all the corn dogs and don't drink all the iced tea, we're coming down there next week.

No problem. I'm on vacation this week, and one our field service guys in England sent me an e-mail yesterday. I replied to him that "I'll look into [the problem] on Thursday the 5th. We traitorous scum are celebrating our rebellion today."

Is that what we call him today? Is he planning to watch the fireworks tonight?

Last time someone introduced himself as uncle Bob, he looked like this.[^]. Fireworks is probably his middle name.

LOL I completely forgot about that! And it strikes me now, about this Uncle Bob as well: Clean Coder Blog

Sort of into jazz, man! (6)
A suspicion has just crossed my mind that the literal element in this might be a uniquely British crossword convention. So here's another, somewhat easier, clue with the same answer:
Business information store for clerical worker (6)

From the second clue:

store SHOP
for clerical worker
BISHOP
And that leads to Walter Bishop Jr.[^] who played jazz piano.

We have a winner!
The fist clue was ISH = "sort of" getting into jazz = "BOP" leading to a (chess) man.
It was my wondering whether "man" for chess piece is ever used outside of the UK ...
I'm not familiar with Walter Bishop - must check him out. I suspect that my old man has a pile of his records somewhere.
