I especially took note of the part: ‘‘The only useful purpose of
this particular procedure is to increase billable hours’’. Terrific
piece!–
The original message included these comments:
Finally, after all these years, they’ve found a use for the triple
encabulator! Good to see Chrysler has lept ahead of GM (we don’t count Ford
anymore at all).
:]
PS, if anyone doesn’t know what a triple encabulator looks like, let me know.–

Billable hours. I learned that as the Mantra of lawyers with
insurance companies paying their bills. Also when I became an
independant adjuster, the seminars had notable time devoted to that
subject. I was never very good at it. I just kept a time sheet and
did my job and let it come out as it may! A joke was told of the
lawer who checked in with St Peter. Sir, according to your billed
hours, we expected you here a long time ago!
In the auto repair business, it’s knon as ‘‘beating flat rate, I
believe’’!
The clip referred also to a Chrysler Cordoba! Fond memories of
mine. Luxurious, but on the cheap!
Doctor’s do it by stacking patients so as to get in as many in
any given time with no lost ‘‘unbillable’’ time!
An triple encabulator is an electronic device programed to triple
the input data.

Reminds me of a cartoon representation of photographing a laboratory scene,
but they brought in the handsome people from the personnel department to
pose.
No need to make up terms Julian. I leave that for professional writers.

So, do you the triple encabulator pic or not?–
