Smell The Bull

Was in a 2 hour meeting this morning. I did wonder whether it was a spoof but the following phrases were used in all seriousness;

"..we need a service oriented architecture....there are 2 threads, orchestration and choreography..."
"...we're moving from a solutions based approach to a business benefits approach..."
"...need to move from the shrink wrapped technology view of the world..."
"...glue it to functionality..."
"...pigs can swim..."
"...bringing in the bubbles..."
"...out of silos..."
"...lozenges not bubbles..."
"...we've identified strands not the bubbles..."

I mean I can talk management speak with the best of them - and, perhaps embarrassingly, have the qualifications to prove it - but what the hell was all that about!
