Cheney Set to Release Enron Recipes
After several days of acrimonious accusations between the Bush administration and the Government Accounting Office (GAO), Vice President Dick Cheney is set to release documents relevant to his meetings last spring with executives from the oil industry. Cheney met with industry leaders in order to discuss the weather, baseball's high strike zone and their recipe collections. The following recipe obtained by postdocme.net was among those discussed.
Enronâs Super Slick Recipe for Success (enough to feed dozens of executives and auditors for several years):
Ingredients:
- several tons of government contributions (to be spread around equally)
- oodles of corporate favors
- oversight (depending on personal tolerance, may be outrageously high for some)
- equivalent amount of gullibility
- a few pinches of chutzpah
Preparation:
1) Take half-baked idea.
2) Mix idea with rosy forecasts and inflated numbers.
3) Sweeten with plenty of sugary statements.
4) Spin around and around.
5) Sift out any negative news.
6) Throw in all the books in the immediate vicinity and cook them too.
7) Continue along with recipe even if you start to smell something funny.
8) Sponge off any leftover dough from employee retirement savings.
9) Layer with shredded documents.
10) Close eyes and try to digest.
