Old papers are fun!

I was going through some old papers, looking for things, and came across a bit of Air Force humor which will appeal, I think, to anyone who has ever worked at the bottom levels of a large organization and can tolerate a bit of rude language...
In the beginning was the Plan
And then came the Assumptions
And the Assumptions were without Form
And the Plan was completely without substance
And darkness was upon the face of the Airmen
And they spoke Amongst themselves, saying,
"It is a Crock of Shit, and It Stinketh"
And the Airmen went unto their Team Chiefs and sayeth,
"It is a Pail of Dung and None may Abide the Odor Thereof,"
And the Team Chiefs went unto their Senior NCO's and sayeth unto them,
"It is a Container of Excrement and it is Very Strong, such that None may Abide By It."
And the Senior NCO's went unto their Officers and sayeth,
"It is a Vessel of Fertilizer, and None May Abide Its Strength."
And the Officers spoke amongst themselves, saying to one another,
"It Contains That Which Aids Plant Growth, and It is Very Strong."
And the Officers went unto the Squadron Commanders and sayeth unto them,
"It Promotes Growth and it is Very Powerful"
And the Squadron Commanders went unto the Group Commander and sayeth unto him
"This New Plan Will Actively Promote the Growth and Efficiency of this Squadron, and These Areas In Particular"
And the Group Commander looked upon the Plan
And Saw that It was Good, and the Plan became Policy.
This is how Shit Happens.
