To Beat a Dead Horse . . .



Dakota Tribal wisdom says that when you discover you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount.

A recently declassified Pentagon document indicates that people in the Pentagon try other strategies.

Specifically there are 22 separate and distinct strategies that people in the Pentagon try when they discover they are riding a dead horse:



1. Buy a stronger whip.

2. Change riders.

3. Say things like, "This is the way we've always ridden this horse."

4. Arrange to visit other sites to see how they ride their dead horses.

5. Increase the standards to ride dead horses.

6. Appoint a Tiger Team to revive the dead horse.

7. Create a training session to increase riding ability.

8. Pass legislation that declares, " The horse is not dead."

9. Harness several Dead Horses together for increased speed.

10. Declare with a policy directive and operating instruction that no dead horse is too dead to beat.

11. Do a cost analysis to determine if contractors can ride the dead horse cheaper.

12. Buy a commercial off-the-shelf dead horse.

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

14. Form an IPT to find uses for dead horses.

15. Revisit the key performance parameters (KPPs) for dead horses.

16. Say the horse was procured making CAIV-based decisions.

17. BRAC the horse farm on which the dead horse was born.

18. Promote the dead horse to a supervisory position.

19. Name the dead horse "Paradigm Shift" and keep riding it.

20. Ride the dead horse "smarter," not harder.

21. Call the dead horse "joint" and let others ride it.

22. Ride the dead horse "outside the box."

Home before 5 and with some nice fresh asparagus to go with my steaks and baked potatoes for dinner, and some money, no less-it is a good day!

Does Hillary ever wonder why
She makes people's teeth itch
Or why some in the 'rat party
Think she's a contumacious bitch

She's trying to re-invent herself-
Now as a conservative she's posin'-
So let's all get some popcorn and watch
Her reaction to David Rosen

Will she treat him to some racial slurs
Like when she lived in the white house
Or will she throw an ashtray at his head
Like she did to her philandering spouse?

Will she she try to put on her nice act
And smile with consummate skill
Or will she greet him with "f*** you" like
The SS says she did to Bill?
