Whoa, Rufus.  Not only did I travel into the future, but now I am being asked not about my purchases in the last year, but about why I spent more in the last six months.  But I didn’t; I spent more in the first six months of the last year, and about the same in the final six months, that is the last six months of the year.

This is a logical rift that can only be solved by attending a project kickoff meeting, where we will not plan on spending more than average on the first half of the project, but that first half’s effort will take up eighty percent of the allotted time for the project, leaving us 20% at the end for development and telling the name of the project to testing (Good name?  QA approved the project!).

Special bonus ding; apparently, I will be rewarded for a coupon for use on President’s Day.  Say, specifically, which single President do we celebrate on that day?
