        Perhaps some creativity on our part could get some more into common parlance? How about "Lets send this through the ringer and see if it comes out dry" ?

                I don't do originality, or spontaneous wit.

                  "Here's an idea off the top of my head. I'll lay it on the table and you can shoot it down in flames."

                  Someone at M&S actually said that in a meeting. I was nearly sick.

                    Thinking outside the box.
                    Bounce it off your people.
                    Going forward.

                      As Terry Pratchett said

                      "I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it."
