Ann,
You’re totally right.
“Because I said so” is a good one. Also, “I don’t know – ask your mom.”

John,
Thanks for the compliment! I agree, it would make a neat iPhone app.
Have a nice weekend,
Paul

Tracy,
Do you need me to make you a custom version?
If it’ll help your team be more creative… I’ll be happy to help!
Thanks for commenting.

This is seriously funny, Paul, because it’s seriously true. Bravo!
As I said on Twitter, this reminds me of parenting, too. As grownups, we often have all the answers for our kids, and I’m always so tempted to be an “Idea Killer” to their spirit and fresh ideas (and I have in the past): “That’s a dumb idea because…”
There’s definite wisdom in holding back and letting them try things on their own, irregardless of the outcome. Within, you know, reason.

Have you considered the value of trademark and copyright on this sucker? This is instantly a very nice iPhone app, and has the potential to be a very nice line of men’s ties with the label on the back being a micro-version of the bingo card. Not that anyone wears a tie any longer but I like to do so at formal meetings and events, where such phrases as these can thrive. Very well played, Paul.

So do you think I’d get in trouble if I brought this into the next meeting? If the entire “O” column was “Not A High Priority Right Now” all the way down…I’d be golden. B-I-N-G-O!

Paul, great post. Just this morning a response to a post told the poster to start over and his idea was not good. The poster, by the way, didn’t ask for a business opinion, but rather a marketing one.
Thanks for the blog.
