This was an entirely intentional moment of attention diversion, since balls are about to start rolling all over the place. As pieces begin slotting into place, it's like a pause in a game of Kerplunk! when you know that the next player to withdraw a straw is going to kick it all off...
In the meantime, back to the groundhog dayjob. Come on the proud Pound!
Which of these two guys hates their job more?

Always loved Kerplunk! Not enough people appreciate the strategic skill required for that game; it's just so much more than pulling random straws ... er ... isn't it?
Kerplunk need a steady hand and good diversionary techniques ......
Of COURSE it's more than pulling random straws!! As DP says, there's all sorts of skills and shady tricks involved... roll on the holiday season :-)))
what about Jack Straws? very strategic.... I wonder if he uses it to make his decisions?

@70s - Oooh yeh had completely forgotten about Jack Straws, what a great game that was.
(as for his decision-making, I think that is actually closer to 'clutching-at-straws')
