Advice from unusual places...

[exponent]

Sometimes the best advice comes from the most unlikely places. Personally, my personal credo is based on the "milkshake" scene from "There Will Be Blood".

If you haven't seen it yet, here is the scene:
There Will Be Blood - Milkshake Scene

So how does this relate to domaining and developing? I think it will become parent almost instantly.

Drainage! Drainage, Eli, you boy. Drained dry. I'm so sorry. Here, if you have a milkshake, and I have a milkshake, and I have a straw. There it is, that's a straw, you see? You watching?. And my straw reaches acroooooooss the room, and starts to drink your milkshake... I... drink... your... milkshake! *ssslluurrrppp* I drink it up!

That bit got airplay on a Seattle radio program (TBTL). Turns out the research for the movie included some congressional hearing transcripts from the 1930's. The milkshake story is supposedly lifted directly from actual testimony.

Stranger than fiction -- indeed.
