• A wise proverb from the dacota indians says:

    When you realize, you are riding a dead horse, dismount

    But guess what, this is not what most people do, especially at work or in politics, or yes, the education system too. I bet you can vividly imagine your peers do one of the following when faced with above dilemma, a dead horse they sit on:

    • acquire a stronger whip
    • say: "We have halways rode the horse this way"
    • create a task force to analyze the horse
    • visit other places to see how they ride dead horses
    • increase quality standards for riding dead horses
    • create a task force to revive the dead horse
    • hire people from outside who are said to be able to ride dead horses
    • have an exercise on riding dead horses
    • make a comparison of horses in varying degrees of deathness
    • change the criteria that define when a horse is dead
    • hitch up multiple dead horses to become faster
    • declare "no horse can be so dead that we can no longer ride it"
    • make a study to see wether there are better or cheaper horses
    • declare that our dead horse is still better, faster and cheaper than others
    • create a work group to figure out the use of dead horses
    • increase the area of responsibility for dead horses
    • create a program to motivate dead horses
    • make a presentation to show what the horse could do if it was still alive
    • restructure so that another department gets the dead horse
    • and last but not least, convince everyone else to also start riding dead horses

    Acid, that's another good solution yap. All kinds a drugs might help you ride a dead horse better. Or at least have more fun doing it. You might end up just as dead though :joy:... Well at least it can't throw you off :yum:
