LOL, I didn't know my ex boss had changed jobs! :-)
He once took more than three weeks to first create a static graphic in
Photoshop then cut it up to fit tables to be the look of the intranet...
Every time I asked how it was going he was "working on cutting the image up"
it was sad, and the look was so simplistic any of the rest of the team could
have come up with and put into html a better design in a day or two tops. We
all got a chuckle when he finally rolled it out, the index had something
like 30 includes for things like a table of height 5 to use as a spacer and
such.
I guess there are always a few out there like that, just makes us appreciate
our own abilities all the more :-)
Good luck with the meeting!

dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their
predecessors.
