So after everyone has a billion dollars,

don't worry you will still be able to get

someone to wash the car, but the price

will have gone up considerably.

A little time will go by and the money

will redistribute, and then we will be right

back where we are now only,

with a little inflation.

The price of a loaf of bread becomes

$300,000,000.99

Dakota tribal wisdon says then when you discover you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount.

However in government, we often try other strategies with dead horses, including the following:

1. Buying a stronger whip

2. Changing riders.

3. Saying things like: "This is the way we have always ridden horses."

4. Appointing a committee to study the horse.

5. Arranging to visit other sites to se how they ride dead horses.

6. Increasing the standards to ride dead horses.

7. Creating a training session to increase our riding ability.

8. Comparing the state of dead horses in today's environment.

9. Passing legislation declaring that "This horse is NOT dead."

10 Blaming the horse's parents.

11. Harnessing several dead horses togather for increased speed.

12. Declaring that "No horse is too dead to beat."

13. Providing additional funding to increase the horse's performance.

14. Do a Cost Analysis study to see if contractors can ride it cheaper.

15. Declare that the horse is "better, faster, and cheaper" dead.

16. Form a quality circle to find uses for dead horses.

17. Revisit the performance requirements for horses.

18. Say this horse was procurred with cost as an independant variable.

19. Penalize the horse farm on which it was born.

20. Promote the dead horse to a supervisory position.

All I will ever need to really know I learned from the story of Noah's Ark:

One: Don't miss the boat.
Two: Remember, we are all in the same boat.
Three: Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah started to build the Ark.
Four: Stay fit. When your 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.
Five: Don't listen to critics, just get on with the job that needs to be done.
Six: Build your future on high ground.
Seven: We are meant to travel in pairs, it was planned that way.
Eight: Speed isn't everything. The snails were onboard with the cheetahs.
Nine: When your stressed, float for awhile.
Ten: Remember the Ark was built by amateurs, the Titanic by Professionals.

Great minds discuss ideas;
Average minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.

Every minute an Idoit is born.. *sighs*

Some words of wisdom from Dilbert - Scott Adams

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.

I can please only one person per day. Today's not your day. Tomorrow's not looking good either.

I don't suffer from stress, I am a carrier.

Don't be irreplaceable - if you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.

If you can remain calm, you just don't have all the facts.

"The only thing worse than beating a dead horse is betting on one"
