Again, I’m the odd man out.

Conversation on the desk this morning --

Cow-orker: "To buy or not to buy?"
Me (instantly): "Aye, there's the rub. Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune..."
Cow-orkers: (blank looks)
Me: "... never mind."

Don't you just hate it when a good one like that goes Right over?

"Omega Boy"!

Awesome wit.

Darn it, now I have to go to the library to catch the references people are making. The work sniffer is blocking the image.

It's a picture of a boy of 9?, grinning. On his head is what I think is a fancy new style of boomerang, which runs from ear to ear (over the head) and has "legs" sticking out from each side. Like the letter Omega. The subsequent is a high-church Christian liturgy reference "I am the Alpha and the Omega" combined with a behavioral dynamics referent.

If Pat had other amusing things in her mind when she posted the picture of the boy, she'll have to explain them herself.
