Let's both be grateful that no one linked this post with your "Thought of the Day[^]" and mentioned something unmentionable - like shopping for a good price in a metric system country is looking for a deci-mall value.

You don't actually use tens in the metric system. Ever hear anyone measure in decimetres or decagrams? Me neither!

Why didn't you just say you've taken a position with Microsoft?

I was a little worried at the interview but apparently I didn't step in it...so here I are! 
A week ago I couldn't even spell engineer and now I are one!

After your years of practice shoveling it here, I'm not surprised you got the job.

I've been chased all around the place by the mother of the Hereford calf pictured but if you give them their space and do not have a dog you'll be OK.
They absolutely hate small dogs though - no idea why.

If you’ve seen one bunch of shops, have you seen a mall?

Unless they're full of naked ladies and then it's a strip mall.

Once again, @OriginalGriff is using the Lounge as an outlet for his shopping of commentary upon his "Blue-Light Special[^]"* posts, of which we obligingly register a cart-full of 'em, all the while discounting ourselves as we sell our pride from the lowest digital shelf.
*A national department store here in America, K-Mart, would hold "blue-light special" sales by bringing a cart around that had a blue-light (not unlike on a police car) on a tall pole; they'd turn on the light and then announce the "blue light special" over the store speaker. Per the link above, looks like they're bringing it back; not that it'll help 'em much...
