["Preben S. Kristensen" <krille@tin.it>]

I thought that it was such a long time since we've had a really OT subject
and with the p.t. low traffic on the list and Easter etc....

Please forgive me for posting it     Preben

 The tribal wisdom of the Dakota Indians, passed on  from one generation to
the  next, says that when you discover you are riding a dead horse, the best
strategy is to dismount.

 However, in modern society, because of the heavy investment factors to be
taken into consideration, often other strategies have to be tried with dead
horses, including the following:

  1.  Buying a stronger whip.
  2.  Changing riders.
  3.  Threatening the horse with termination.
  4.  Appointing a committee to study the horse.
  5.  Arranging to visit other sites to see how they ride dead horses.
  6.  Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.
  7.  Appointing an intervention team to reanimate the dead horse.
  8.  Creating a training session to increase the riders load share.
  9.  Reclassifying the dead horse as living-impaired.
 10.  Change the form so that it reads: "This horse is not dead."
 11.  Hire outside contractors to ride the dead horse.
 12.  Harness several dead horses together for increased speed.
 13.  Donate the dead horse to a recognized charity, thereby deducting its
full original cost.
 14.  Providing additional funding to increase the horse's performance.
 15.  Do a time management study to see if the lighter riders would improve
productivity.
 16.  Purchase an after-market product to make dead horses run faster.
 17.  Declare that a dead horse has lower overhead and therefore performs
better.
 18.  Form a quality focus group to find profitable uses for dead horses.
 19.  Rewrite the expected performance requirements for horses.
 20.  Promote the dead horse to a supervisory position.
