Strange analogies

Reading my mix of blogs today I was lead to post on a blog that I don't normally read. The blogger describes himself as an "idiot light." He is talking sports and drawing an analogy from the world of car maintenance. He compares himself to the "idiot light" on the dash that reminds you that there are some things that need attention. I couldn't help but think that it was also a good analogy for auditors. So, not only are we "watch dogs" but we're also "idiot lights."
