A practically perfect animation that illustrates how government solves problems

This has been around for a while, but I love it. It's even funnier when your mind is in the right context for it...

[Mr. K]

thats about right...

but you left out the 20 layers of managers to supervise him

[The Looking Spoon]

Each truck that goes by is a different driver because the previous one went on break...

How’s that? Close enough ;-)

That illustrates the whole anti-virus industry, according to my husband. He is certain that the same people write the viruses that attack your computer that write the programs that kill the viruses.

BOL! Looks like a typical Caltrans scam, but without the 20 layers of supervisors as noted by Mr K :

[RingerSIX]

Don’t forget about the guys who keep shovels from falling over. :)

a BIT like the LEAF BLOWER!

That is how my driveway would look after I cleared it then the snowplow came by and buried the end of it in rock hard ice.

I have no idea about that but it certainly makes sense that the guy who started the virus would know exactly how to stop it. I used to work for a manufacturer of machinery as a tech rep and sometimes people would make a comment to the effect that one or the other rep had fixed one problem and put in another that only showed up after he left. I sometimes jokingly said that one of us fixed the problem that the other guy put in and then put in a different problem for him to fix on the next trip. You had to be careful who you said that to, some of them would believe it. The strangest part in our case was that most of the customers had flat rate contracts covering parts and labor so to do what they said would have been counterproductive, just increasing our expenses and burning time for no additional revenue and creating bad relations with customers at the same time.

Based on my limited knowledge of computer viruses, it sounds as though your husband may be onto something though.

Guy on the radio said after the last snow in St. Paul the salt truck came down his street. Followed by a plow that scrapped up the salt and sent it into boulevard.
