The Plan
1. In the beginning was the Plan.
2. And then came the Assumptions.
3. And the Assumptions were without form.
4. And the Plan was without Substance.
5. And darkness was upon the face of the Workers.
6. And the Workers spoke among themselves saying, "It is a crock
of
shit
and it stinks."
7. And the Workers went unto their Supervisors and said, "It is a
crock
of dung and we cannot live with the smell."
8. And the Supervisors went unto their Managers saying, "It is a
container of organic waste, and it is very strong, such that none
may
abide by it."
9. And the Managers went unto their Directors, saying, "It is a
vessel
of fertilizer, and none may abide its strength."
10. And the Directors spoke among themselves, saying to one
another, "It
contains that which aids plant growth,
and it is very strong."
11. And the directors went to the Vice Presidents, saying unto
them, "It
promotes growth, and it is very powerful."
12. And the Vice Presidents went to the President, saying unto
him,
"It
has very powerful effects."
13. And the President looked upon the Plan and saw that it was
good.
14. And the Plan became Policy.
15. And that is how sh@t happens.
On the Lighter Side of Life:
An elderly couple is vacationing in the West. Sam
always wanted a pair of authentic cowboy boots. Seeing
some on sale one day, he buys them, wears them home,
walking proudly. He walks into their hotel room and
says to his wife, "Notice anything different, Bessie?"
Bessie looks him over, "Nope." Sam says excitedly,
"Come on, Bessie, take a good look. Notice anything
different about me?" Bessie looks again, "Nope."
Frustrated, Sam storms off into the bathroom,
undresses, and walks back into the room completely
naked except for his boots. Again, he asks, a little
louder this time, "Notice anything DIFFERENT?" Bessie
looks up and says, "Sam, what's different? It's
hanging down today, it was hanging down yesterday,
it'll be hanging down again tomorrow." Furious, Sam
yells, "AND DO YOU KNOW WHY IT'S HANGING DOWN, BESSIE?
IT'S HANGING DOWN BECAUSE IT'S LOOKING AT MY NEW
BOOTS!!!!" To which Bessie replies, "Shoulda bought a
hat, Sam. ....... Shoulda bought a hat."
