As my colleagues are in different locations, I use Yahoo Messenger mainly to communicate with them. If you've got a Yahoo Messenger account, you'll realise it allows sending of audible messages. Now there's a range of Halloween greetings, one of which is a screaming woman. Well, that's become my symbol now. Most messages from colleagues to me will be surprise notes on more work to come my way, and in turn I'll send them back the audible of the (loud) screaming woman.

No, it's not funny.
