|
To Be A Soldier ] 1. [used ironically to indicate the speaker's lack of the
|
|
|
|
|
quantity in question] A mythical schedule slot for accomplishing tasks held

|

interested in accomplishing the task, but believes that the opportunity will
|
|
|
|
|
not arise. I'll implement the automatic layout stuff in my copious free

time. 2. [Archly] Time reserved for bogus or otherwise idiotic tasks, such
|
|
|
|
|
as implementation of chrome , or the stroking of suit s. I'll get back to
