Eh, they're just tounge-in-cheek ideas just like the rest of the slogans I've
posted around here.  The way I see it: if something funny sticks, all the
better. ;)

Now "Scrum", in this particular case, is a pun:

- In rugby football, a scrum is a way to restart the game after an interruption,
e.g., after a minor foul.
- In management, scrum denotes a light-weight management process targeted at
software development.

Hey, sure!  Any ideas?
