Dogbert stands next to a globe and says into a microphone, "On this episode of 'Dogbert's Amazingly Ignorant People' we ask people to find Australia on the globe." A woman looks at the globe and asks, "Is that the place with the Alps or the kangaroos?" A man says, "I think it's in London." Dogbert says, "When we return: inspiration becomes bitter disappointment." The woman says, "Hey! Who says it has to be on the OUTSIDE?"

The Boss says, "Wally, have you made any progress coding your module?" Wally says, "Progress is difficult to measure in the software realm." Wally says, "You could measure the lines of code I produce, but that would reward inefficiency." Wally says, "The art of this job is binding the rare moments of inspiration to knowledge and machines." Wally says, "In fact, just a minute ago I could feel the inspiration welling up inside me." Wally says, "But then you interrupted me with your naive question and the moment was lost." Wally says, "Maybe you should go back to your office and reflect on the damage you've done here today." Wally thinks, "There goes the one person who has less of a real job than I do."
