Cow Economy
TRADITIONAL CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You sell 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 three of them to your publicly listed company, using letters of credit opened by your brother-in-law at the band, 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. Sell one cow to buy a new president of the United States, leaving you with nine cows. No balance sheet provided with the release. The public buys your bull.

AN AUSTRALIAN CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You sell one, and force the other to produce the milk of four cows. You are surprised when the cow drops dead.

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 of an ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk. You then create clever cow cartoon images called Cowikimon and market them worldwide.

A GERMAN CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You reengineer them so they live for 100 years, eat once a month, and milk themselves.

AN ITALIAN CORPORATION
You have two cows, but you don't know where they are... You break for lunch.

A RUSSIAN CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You count them and learn you have five cows.
You count them again and learn you have 42 cows.
You count them again and learn you have 12 cows.
You stop counting cows and open another bottle of vodka.

A SWISS CORPORATION
You have 5000 cows, none of which belong to you. You charge others for storing them.

CHINESE CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You have 300 people milking them.
You claim full employment, high bovine productivity, and arrest the newsman who reported the numbers.

A BRITISH CORPORATION
You have two cows... both are mad.

A NEW ZEALAND CORPORATION
You have two cows... and the one on the left is kinda cute...

Happy Weekend everyone! Going out to lunch with my cousins and to a big flea market.

Howdy ho, sweet Joe! Thanks for the openers! Hope your work day goes smoothly!

Good morning, sweet 'Boomies!

Today, daughter and I are working on wedding projects! So much fun! Later, Hubby will join us to barbecue. We're having grilled salmon, asparagus, and new potatoes.

Alrighty, off to see what's afoot!

Party is over at the tenant's house. Was very quiet and only about 6 cars of people. All left by 8 pm. They usually stay late into the next morning, but I think there was no big alcohol offering this time since it was for the lady of the house and not all men. They tend to party harder and play mahjong. Now the only noise is the younger son, who came down from Los Angeles. I haven't seen him for months! He was the one that drove me nuts by coming to stay all weekend every other week and sometimes in between for days at a time. Now he's got a new girlfriend, who lives in San Francisco so he isn't visiting much. I like that. I think he's fixing or replacing a florescent light in the kitchen that was partly dismantled. They put it up long ago to replace a nice ceiling light and it always looked horrible. Hope they are putting in something nice. It was one of those 'shop' lights and not pretty. They used the wiring from the old light and dragged it across the ceiling to center it. Looked terrible but was electrically safe. Had it checked when I had a guy down there fixing other electrical stuff. So the son is hammering, and drilling and making all sorts of 'construction' noises. Could be doing anything there. I won't know till I go to the next party or 'emergency call'.

Nice day here. Going to spend it doing something outside.

Joe may work go fast and well. Thanks for the laughs and have a lovely day!

Ana hope the corner project is moving right along for you so you can bikeride tomorrow. Have a lovely day! Oh.....how's the body feeling today??? HUGS!

Space the weekend is here.....enjoy. Have a lovely day!

Karen that is a very nice offering and I'm sure the hores will love it. So glad to hear that the leg is almost healed. HUGS! Have a lovely day!

Haroula how did the Easter prep go? Have a lovely day!

Sue sorry about the rainy weekend. We have sun but on Monday we have another winter storm ready to dump lots of snow or so they say! Thanks for the coffee and have a lovely day!

Gerry have a lovely day!

Connie HUGS! Thanks for the danish and have a lovely day!

Manxman have a lovely day!

Gail enjoy lunch and have fun at the flea market. Have a lovely day!

Sorta nice that the party didn't go all night. Have a lovely day!


Nan

Super Saturday ya'll

Soot and I were up and out early early to pick up Lil Soot meds at our vet and then head to AU to pick up the Seagy. Easy ride up there. Poor little girl was very anxious. We are all glad to have her home. Now to manage her meds and hope she eats and gets better each day.

Hubby went to join the boys at the ball game so we could have a totally quiet house (don't even have the tv on). I'm going to cook books for just a second and then take Seagy up to the bed and hang there for bit.

Doc, that is wonderful news about your leg. I'm glad you can honor Mojo by helping other horses. You are an angel.

Good afternoon boomies! I am in scramble mode today so I can be free tomorrow. I did get the dogs out for a run and swim so they are leaving me alone and hubby did a charity bowl and he'll be home soon. All in a all, a busy but good day.

I hope you all are enjoying your day!
