I was thinking rush and bolt for dash. Could not make a word.

Yay! We have a winner.

How many programmers does it take to change a light-bulb?
None. It's a hardware problem.
Slogans aren't solutions.

So I was sitting in a meeting when someone asked how we were going to educate the users to a potentially complex process, I suggest with a clue bat.
Six guys looked at me strangely (not an unusual occurrence) but they had no idea what a clue bat is.
Next I go on line and see if I can find a foam or rubber clue bat to buy, can't locate one in the usual suspects and google is not helping. Anyone know where I can get a range of clue bats?

Just buy a Louisville Slugger, and paint "Clue Bat" on it.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I actually want to be able to thump someone without damaging them.

My philosophy is "there's no such thing as overkill". If someone should be thumped, don't fool around; do it good and proper!
(The result is that I thump very few people; zero, in fact. )

As Churchill would say, "Thump them once. Then come back and thump them again. Then thump them a third time - a tremendous whack."

That sounds too much like work, you only need to add a single letter: "C Louisville Slugger"
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

If you can't find a supplier, then perhaps that's an opportunity for you to start manufacturing them?
Either way, they should be free issued to those entering the murky world of QA...

Not bad, but I find this one[^] scarier (esp. if you look at the "Frequently Bought Together" section).

It could be worse - the list could include an old carpet, a shovel, and quicklime.

Ah, so that's who/what this "Lucille" is.
Someone else referred to her/it, earlier, but I had no idea what he was talking about.
