Might I also suggest that Reticulating Splines, can also have the real world meaning, "building a lattice".
As it turns out, the primary definition of a spline is a thin wood or metal strip used for building (to paraphrase modern Webster's Dictionary) and that reticulating is to make a web or network.
So, next time you need to assist a climbing plant or provide some shade in your back yard, might I suggest you Reticulate Splines and form a lattice.
