Skilling's Law 

The immutable law that the higher a person climbs the corporate ladder the more useless they become to common business & management tasks. Named after Jeffery Skilling of Enron fame.
"Why is Bob the VP asking everybody who there are doing?"
"Joyce the Deptartment head is off this week. He told her he'd look after things while she's gone."
"OMG don't let him do anything while he's here. That man is the personification of Skilling's Law."

Skimming 

Short for "skimboarding", the sport of running and jumping on a specially made board and skimming over the surface of the water (usually at the beach). The 2 types of skimming are:

- Sandskimming -
Done by skimming parallel to the beach across a thin layer of water, usually on a sandbar or other flat area. Almost all skimmers start this way, although there's lots of room for expertise with advanced sandskimming tricks.

- Wave-riding -
With wave riding you start higher on the beach, and run down the slope hopefully getting on your board before the shoal drops off. From there you ride out to a wave, carve into it and ride it in, performing your bag of tricks along the way.
"hey you guys wanna get some surf?"
"nah man, the surf sucks, i'd rather gargle cat wiz... I just wanna skim today."

skimming 

Taking the details off a card at an ATM
usually by adding an additional card
reader onto the original slot. The details
are used to make a fake duplicate. The
pin number is obtained by watching or
filming the victim as he types it in.
I was a victim of skimming because
2 hours after taking some money out of
a cash machine in Soho, 300 pounds was
taken out of my account at another machine in Brixton - and I was nowhere near there at the time.
