    Errrrrrrrrrrrrr...I am an accountant and have not worn a pocket protector for years. We don't use colored pens much either. We have computers now. Also got rid of the visor and sleeve bands a few years ago. After I left Scrooge and Marley, my work situation became much better.

    Default It is call a Haka

    A traditional war cry, dance or challenge from the Maori of New Zealand... also performed for various reasons: for welcoming distinguished guests, or to acknowledge great achievements, occasions or funerals.

    The more I watch that the more I appreciate it. Cultural differences are amazing.

    Default That Haka tribute dance...

    ... and the embraces after were very respectful and showed how deeply the people care about their heritage. I was appreciative of this small portion of their customs that are certainly ingrained in the culture. Thanks for sharing it....
