In the beginning, there was the Plan,
And then came the Assumption,
And the Assumptions were without form,
And the Plan was without substance,
And the darkness was
upon the face of the Firefighters,
And they spoke among themselves, saying,
"It is a crock of shit and it stinketh!"
And the Firefighters went unto their
Lieutenants and said,
"It is a pail of dung,
and none may abide by the odor thereof."
And the Lieutenants went unto their Captains, saying,
"It is a container of excrement, and it is very strong;
Such that none may abide by it."
And the Captains went unto the Battalion Chiefs, saying,
"It is a vessel of fertilizer, and none may abide its strength."
And the Battalion Chiefs spoke among themselves, saying to one another,
"It contains that which aids plant growth, and it is very strong."
And the Battalion Chiefs then went unto the Assistant Chiefs, saying,
"It promotes growth and it is very powerful."
And the Assistant Chiefs went unto the Chief, saying to him,
"This new Plan will actively promote the growth
and vigor of the department with powerful effects."
And the Chief looked upon the Plan.
And he saw that it was good.
And the Plan became Policy,
And this is how Shit happens.!
