I love this. Thank you. A co-worker once bought t-shirts for his team that said, "At some point, you have to shoot the engineer and start production."

...maybe just dressing them up and opening the champaign is enough. ;)

The Romans put milestones up so soldiers could know how far along the march was. Otherwise, not knowing where one day begins and the next ends is stressful, (also, the hookers and food wagons wouldn't know where to meet up ;)
