War analogies are a whole horrid subset of business-speak. Maybe we can blame some of that on <em>The Art of War</em> showing up on so many CEOs' bookshelves. Yes!

After a decade of real war, let's have the soft-handed Ivy Leaguers leave the fighting to real soldiers, not pretend ones whose "battlefield" is the golf course, the boardroom, or the country club.

Have you seen Lake Superior State University's annual List of Words Banished from the Queen's English for Misuse, Overuse and General Uselessness? I think marcom can be nominated for that one. <a href="http://www.lssu.edu/banished/" rel="nofollow">Here's the link for the 2012 list</a>. I don't know what the heck "terribad" is, but I hope I never hear it again. Yeah, “marcom” is right up there at the top of the list.
