QotD: Grossly Overweight Head Coaches/Managers
Just wondering: In the history of the NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball, what grossly overweight head coaches or managers successfully lead their teams to a championship?
(your operational definition of grossly overweight for this purpose: being the physical condition of the person that dominates your mental image of that person)

QotD: Blogging, Business and Late Payments
Not a theoretical.
We have a business client for which we did a graphic design job for about six months ago. The project for which the design job was done has been dormant since shortly after that time (for reasons not related to anything we were involved with) - I'm not sure of the project's status, but we have a signed contract for our work on the project and we've billed several times. We've been promised payment, but still... no check.
Should a small business use a blog to notify the public of such behavior as lack of payment? If so, how long should the businessperson wait, and should they use the threat of such posting to speed up payment? I realize there are legal options to pursue for payment, but their costs are higher than publicly announcing on the internet the damaging slowness in which an organization may pay their bills.
