Project Grizzly

Rejoice Comrades!

I know you may think that all of the time for me is spent in working on the Revolution. This is mostly true. However, today I have taken some time off to unwind and watch a terrific film: Project Grizzly. It is a film about a project leader who dreams of making a bear proof suit to better study the animals. It is a fantastic story, and serves very well as a metaphor for the development of the Revolution.

For instance, version 1 of the suit was almost useless, much like the first revolutions. Around version 5, there are several competing revolutions with different thought process involved, all involving the ultimate goal of building a bear proof suit, or a better revolution. Around version 6, you come close, but realize that your suit is so heavy that you can't actually walk or accomplish your goals, so you know you need to get a helicopter to pick up your old suit, and take it back to the metal scrap yard and continue working because now you can see the light.

Yes Comrades. A terrific film.

The Results from the last Revolutionary Ideological Year (RIY)

Rejoice Comrades!

The results are in from the RIY 2007. Comrades, I must tell you that we faced some fairly significant challenges in the past year, particularly in getting appropriate staffing for the revolution. Because of this, we were not able to deliver as much of the Revolution as we had planned. Additionally, while the increasing slump in the housing market has been driving more and more of our fellow citizens to join us, this did not happen until later in the year and so we haven't made up much ground on our Revolutionary commitments.

Rejoice though, there are many more of us in the Revolution!!! We have an excellent plan to make up ground in the Revolutionary Ideological Space, we have many areas of Revolutionary Best Practices that we will be implementing, and we are all ready, willing and able to push the Revolution forward.

Comrades, Rejoice! RIY 2008 looks to be phenomenal.

Returned from the Indoctrination Process Team

Rejoice Comrades!

My suggestion for improving the Indoctrination Process for the Revolution is moving forward. I shall tell you how I did it.

First, I had to discover who was on the IP team. So, as a nexus for the distributed cells of the revolution, I was able to piece this together.

Then, I issued a communication asking for meeting. This being accepted, we negotiated on a place. It involved much travel, I must tell you. Apparently, this team only uses face time to judge suggestions. No conference calls and no web meetings...

Needless to say, once I showed them my Revolutionary Case for an Incremental Improvement in the Indoctrination Process because of how many comrades we had lost, they have agreed to take the suggestion on the docket for the regular improvement review that they do where it will be appropriately prioritized.

Yes, Comrades. A job well done for the Revolution. Rejoice.
