Transcript:
Danae: Well? What are you waiting for? Lucy: A good reason to do this ... Danae: Two words, Lucy ... risk management. Lucy: Oh, I think I'm gonna need a lot more words than that. Danae: If everything goes as planned, then we'll reap the rewards for creating the great new spectator sport of horseback ski jumping! Danae: Oh ... and what about the all-too-obvious disaster that's waiting to happen? Lucy: That's where I manage to ignore the risks. Danae: Now what? Lucy: Two words ... bail out.

Similar to my long lived theory of “Crisis Management” wherein the managers do nothing until there is a crisis, then they manage to avoid being blamed.

Risk management is finding a way to avoid taking the risk yourself, and crisis management is about finding a scapegoat for when the crisis is over. Either way, they are ways to make a profit and avoid blame.

Wiley, If you are “listening” today; your true genious shows once again. I did a little thread research this morning of the name Danae, as you had offered up and found a very interesting story. Now suddenly your ongoing saga where Danae and her sister are in some mountain dungeon makes sense to me and (heart be still) even Eddy the fishing captain has a place to fit in. Great work!

“The best laid plans of mice and men are often gone awry.” or “The best laid plans of Danae, without Lucy’s support, often go astray.”

Didn’t Calvin & Hobbes do this SAME cartoon with a sled?

You know, I bet if Lucy did go, she’d really only need one word.
