Answering some mail this morning, I came up with the following phrase:

The nice thing is that there has been a real renaissance in Notes in the last three years - and I can think of nothing better at this point than being paid to wring every last piece of value out of it..
I stood back from this rather pretentious sentence and thought.. Do I really mean this? And you know, after several minutes introspection, I had to confess that I did. Wholeheartedly. (I'm grinning whilst I write this)

Isnt it nice when work is interesting ?

Gravatar Image2 - Are you sure you're "wringing value OUT of it", implying that you're REMOVING value, rather than ADDING value by doing what you do?

(Did that make sense? I be nicht ein native Englisch speaker)
