Ok, rather late in posting these, but thought it might help you get your week off to a good start. The first link is a list of laws of software development. You've undoubtedly heard of many of them, but it's still nice to have a single place of reference for them. Especially when faced with making arguments against silly projects. Speaking of which, I've also added a second link below that is somewhat tongue-in-cheek defining what certain key terms mean to engineers with respect to "feasibility" of projects. Enjoy! :)
