This really funny bit of Western Wisdom popped up in one of my social bookmarking collections. It’s all about this old wisdom that says when you discover you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. However, this article says that in business or in life generally we often try a myriad of other strategies with dead horses.

Some of these are to buy a stronger whip or trying to change riders. Somebody will determine that this is how we have always ridden this horse. There is also the option of appointing a committee, set up a quality control group, convene endless meetings, write a report or get an external consultant.
