Andy 60 Posted August 16, 2003 Milking the Cash Cows How different corporations might view two cows in a field... Traditional Corporation You have two cows. You selll one and buy a bull. Your herd multiplies and the economy grows. You sell them and retire on the income. American Corporation You have two cows. You sell one, and force the other to produce the milk of four cows. You are surprised when the remaining cow drops dead. Russian Corporation You have two cows. You count them and discover you have five cows. You count again and find you have 42. You count another time and realise you have 12. You stop counting and open another bottle of vodka. French Corporation You have two cows. You go on strike because you want three cows. Japanese Corporation You have two cows. You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size and produce 20 times the milk. You then create clever cow cartoon images called Cowkimon and market them worldwide. German Corporation You have two cows. You re-engineer them so they live for 100 years and milk themselves. British Corporation You have two cows. Unfortunatly they are both mad. Chinese Corporation You have two cows. You have 300 people milking them. You claim full employment and arrest the newsman who reported the numbers. The Enron Corporation You have two cows. You sell three of them to your publicly listed company, using letters of credit opened by your brother-in-law at the bank, then execute a debt/equity swap with an associated general offer so that you get all four cows back, with a tax exemption for five cows. The milk rights of the six cows are transferred to a Cayman Island company, who sells the rights to all seven cows back to your listed company. The annual report shows that the company owns eight cows, with an option on one more. You sell one cow to buy a new US president, leaving nine cows. The public buys your bull.

Andy 60 Posted August 20, 2003 Wyld posted it a JPL, so I has to pinch it and plonk it here The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European nation rather than German which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5-year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English". The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of the "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with the "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter. In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away. By the 4th yer peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v". During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
