Zentai meeting

We have an office meeting on the first day of every month where the boss gives us an inspirational speech, japan style, with plenty of emotion and vigour. Obviously, being dumb gaijins, we haven't a clue what is going on but we can tell by his manner and the japanese staff's manner, what the mood of the meeting is..What gives me the biggest kick is the intro to the meeting (if TC did this, it would be brilliant!!). He got a very famous and well respected Japanese composer to write a theme for the company. So at about 8.45am, while working away at my computer, the music just starts out of nowhere, at full volume and scares the bejeezus out of me!!! I let loose with a string of obscenities and calm down...it's a cross between Howard Shore and Bernstein and it's mad, plenty of percussion, strings, wind and piano..lots of solos and big string pieces. It reminds me of Star Wars, Dallas and LOTR. In the midst of my sleepy daydream while this is playing (it's so loud one can't hear oneself think) I start picturing the boss, arriving in on a white horse, resplendid in a white cape, outfit (something Gandalf the White would be proud of) and staff, shouting "hi ho Silver, away" at the top of his voice and galloping out again...that didn't happen of course...
