I admit. Some mimes are darn punchy.

They are not just punchy, you know? Somehow, they stick. They’re eating the cats is one. They’re eating the dogs is another.

Let’s [finally] put the US elections behind us.

I was at a client office shaking hands with daily users of the software I never met. My contact person offered to make introductions. I pounced on the opportunity.

It was here that I met that guy.

A ‘Man of 45’.

Mimes rock

“Hello, we finally meet. I’m Charlie. I’m a Man of 45.”

Trust me. I’m all in for interesting introductions. Cookie-cutter intros do no justice to their names and what they do.

A ‘Man of 45’.

What the heck does that [even] mean?

That silent thought spun above my head at least 7 times as I introduced myself. Mine is super simple. Name. Company role. Thank you for subscribing to our software.

Haha. Well, I can deliver this even in my sleep.
