Entropy
by Jim Benz
The strategy is hardly a secret
The strategy is just around the corner
The strategy is to disintegrate the network
The strategy is something so simple that you’ll be frustrated
The strategy is looking for profit
The strategy is to be implemented immediately
The strategy is to be dynamic and successful
The strategy is going to reposition the bank
The strategy is not a crazy speculation
The strategy is based on a Discussion Paper
The strategy is a blueprint
The strategy is a good place to verify the state of the model
The strategy is embedded
The strategy is strong on aspiration
The strategy is envisioned as a continuum
The strategy is intended to be a living document
The strategy is traded 24 hours a day
The strategy is part the acquisition plan
The strategy is to determine what should be done
The strategy is meaningless
The strategy is to stall for time
The strategy is aimed primarily at government
The strategy is now being promoted to the institute
The strategy is not about the “end product”
The strategy is long on vision
The strategy is entitled
The strategy is more than a mere call for action
The strategy is based on a classified document
The strategy is part of the plan but not the same as the plan
The strategy is the right one, and we continue to work relentlessly to implement it

| Posted by Elizabeth Jill on 08/01/08 at 05:08 PM Jim, this poem creates an eerie feeling in my bones. Far-out wording. |
| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 08/01/08 at 08:38 PM I'm with Jill - the long list gives an eerie feeling, almost a piling-up-on-top of me or maybe more importantly - us. Yikes. The "online" line at the end is both funny and a caution flag to me. |
