G.I. Guarantee Watch: I try to understand

by David Safier

All bus drivers are bureaucrats, but not all bureaucrats are bus drivers.

All buses drive bureaucrats, but not all bureaucrats drive buses.

All cafeteria food is bureaucratic, but not all bureaucrats eat cafeteria food.

Teachers are not bureaucrats, but some teachers teach bureaucrats.

When the broom is an arrow, the custodian is a zen archer.

Can the bus drive itself while one hand claps?

All G.I. statements have an agenda, but not all agendas are G.I. statements.

It's useless. I must strive harder to understand the wisdom of the Goldwater Institute. And yet, by striving, I will always miss the target. I must become one with the baseball, or with the bureaucrat, or with the bus driver, or something.
