Resolution
"To eschew all reference to mission statements, stakeholders, strategic plans, corporate aims, goings forward and all other verbal paraphernalia of a verbose, litigious world, to avoid the humbug of irrelevant aspersions and render the reader a somewhat happier and contented soul with funny musings and light-hearted play with the ridiculous."

P.S: grandiose in a positive way.
Anything that won't sell, I don't want to invent. Its sale is proof of utility, and utility is success.

At the risk of seeming tendentious, I feel that the Wikipdia entry doesn't really pick up the negative connotation as well as the dictionary.com entry.
