Our developers actually have a fooz-ball table set up in one of the
smaller meeting rooms. You know it's late afternoon when you hear the
bang and clatter accompanied by tribal yells.
(I guess I should "internationalize" this for those of you who have
never heard of foozball. It's a crude simulation of soccer -- a table on
four legs with bars across the its width. The bars have little plastic
men that you rotate and shift back and forth to try to knock the ball
into the goal.)
