The five stages of productivity
  1. Look around and think about where to begin.
  2. Sit down on the couch and keep thinking.
  3. Lay down since it is more comfortable.
  4. Cover me up because I'm cold.
  5. Fall asleep.

I remember reading of a couple of guys, both called Alan Jones, who worked in the same specific field. They published together occasionally, and referenced their papers as Al et Al.
