Cybersalt News

Sunday greetings everyone!

I am announcing a change is the sending schedule of the Cybersalt Digest. It will only be sent out on Sundays and Chicken Thursdays.  This will allow me to devote time to some other Cybersalt projects that are in the works. I hope you will understand, and watch for news of those projects.

There is a new Rev. James Snyder devotional on the Cybersalt Site today. James writes about his very interesting and imaginative encounter with some noisy, ungrateful birds in "Thoughts, Plots and Other Dangerous Activities" at:

Enjoy the rest of today's mailing!

Cow-isms

*Various organizational philosophies explained in "two cow" terms.*

Socialism: You have two cows. You keep one and give one to your neighbor.

Communism: You have two cows. The government takes them both and provides you with milk.

Feudalism - You have two cows. Your lord takes some of the milk.

Fascism - You have two cows. The government takes both, hires you to take care of them, and sells you the milk.

Totalitarianism - You have two cows. The government takes them both and denies they ever existed and drafts you into the army. Milk is banned.

Bureaucracy: You have two cows. The government takes them both, shoots one, milks the other, pays you for the milk, and then pours it down the drain.

Corporate: You have two cows. You sell one, force the other to produce the milk of four cows and then act surprised when it drops dead.

Democracy: You have two cows. The government taxes you to the point that you must sell them both in order to support a man in a foreign country who has only one cow which was a gift from your government.

Capitalism: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull.

Enron Venture Capitalism - 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 via an intermediary to a Cayman Island company secretly owned by the majority shareholder who sells the rights to all seven cows back to your listed company. The annual report says the company owns eight cows, with an option on one more.
