I am sitting at work, hitting myself over the head with a plastic dinosaur called 'Fluffy'. Fluffy is our release token. You have to be holding him to integrate your code into source-control.

In a previous project, the release token was a big blue plastic head full of {Australia: lollies, UK: sweets, USA: candy}, but I gained several pounds during that project so it probably wasn't too good an idea.

I wanted to get a rubber chicken instead of a dinosaur, but the only place we could find one was in Gowings, and they were asking $AU25 for it. I still think we should have bought it, just for the fun of expensing "$25: Rubber chicken".
