It's a Pile System -- Not a File System
Talked to my buddy Pothead on Saturday night and tried to solve all of the world's problems. We took care of most things, but couldn't figure out how to keep Eeds from getting speeding tickets since she finds it physically uncomfortable to allow anyone, anywhere to be on the road ahead of her.
Anyway, we decided that we'll probably quit our jobs (and make Pappy, Snot and HD quit theirs) and open up our own consulting firm. Pappy and I would handle the legal aspects, Snot would do crops, HD would handle livestock and Pothead would get high and handle milling/feeding/etc. things. We probably wouldn't make any money, but we could probably break even if we could get some cool corporate sponsorships/joint ventures like Busch Light and Chevy (except that Snot has to drive a Nissan).
Otherwise, the rest of us will have to wait until Pothead becomes a multi billionaire off of his logistics and management "Pile System" concept. Developed early in Pothead's academic career and continually evolving, the Pile System is a wholly integrated document management, human resources, logistics, data processing and holistic healing system built around the use of piles in your everyday life.
I use it in my office and have found it to be invaluable. I have no idea what I'm doing or where things are at, but since I have so many piles people assume that I'm busy and don't ask me to do more stuff. This leaves me with more time to devote to finding stuff in my piles. See: It works.

Consulting Firm Update: Captain has been nominated to fill the role of "Senior Lead Advisory Management Member in Charge of Catfish and Trolling Motors."
If you set your consulting firm up in Lenexa, I'll write a biz feature on you guys. I already have the lede:
"Brother, Pothead, Snot, Pappy and HD have never failed to come up with interesting ways to do ordinary tasks.
In college, the five friends found ways to stay continually smashed and still get where they needed to go without the fear of DUI charges (except pothead ... sorry.)
"The trick is to find a dirt road without any real ditches," Brother said. "Then you just put the truck in low gear, jump in the back with the cooler, and let 'er go. If you get pulled over, you just blame the truck, because - hey, obviously I am WAY too drunk to be driving."
It's this knack for thinking outside the box that led the five former K-Staters to create 1000K, Lenexa's newest consulting firm.
The business bears the name of the college home the five friends shared their senior year at K-State.
The house itself is a perfect example of the original thinking that the friends say will rocket their consulting firm to one of Kansas City's most successful businesses.
"We had a lofted couch, for God's sake," Pothead said. "I mean, it doesn't get much more original than that."
Unless you count the culinary masterpieces created in the 1000K kitchen ...
