A farmer named Sam was overseeing his herd in a remote mountainous pasture in Hereford when suddenly a brand-new BMW advanced toward him out of a cloud of dust.
The driver, a young man in a Brioni® suit, Gucci® shoes, RayBan® sunglasses and YSL® tie, leaned out the window and asked the cowboy, «If I tell you exactly how many cows and calves you have in your herd, will you give me a calf?»
Sam looks at the man, who obviously is a yuppie, then looks at his peacefully grazing herd and calmly answers, «Sure, why not?»The yuppie parks his car, whips out his Dell® notebook computer, connects it to his Cingular RAZR V3® cell phone, and surfs to a NASA page on the Internet, where he calls up a GPS satellite to get an exact fix on his location which he then feeds to another NASA satellite that scans the area in an ultra-high-resolution photo.
The young man then opens the digital photo in Adobe Photoshop® and exports it to an image processing facility in Hamburg, Germany …
Within seconds, he receives an email on his Palm Pilot® that the image has been processed and the data stored. He then accesses an MS-SQL®
database through an ODBC connected Excel® spreadsheet with email on his Blackberry® and, after a few minutes, receives a response.Finally, he prints out a full-color, 150-page report on his hi-tech, miniaturized HP LaserJet® printer, turns to the cowboy and says, «You have exactly 1,586 cows and calves.»
«That’s right. Well, I guess you can take one of my calves,» says Sam.
He watches the young man select one of the animals and looks on with amusement as the young man stuffs it into the trunk of his car.
Then Sam says to the young man, «Hey, if I can tell you exactly what your business is, will you give me back my calf?»The young man thinks about it for a second and then says, «Okay, why not?»
«You’re a Member of the European Parliament», says Sam.
«Wow! That’s correct,» says the yuppie, «but how did you guess that?»«No guessing required.» answered Sam. «You showed up here even though nobody called you; you want to get paid for an answer I already knew, to a question I never asked. You used millions of dollars worth of equipment trying to show me how much smarter than me you are; and you don’t know a thing about how working people make a living – or about cows, for that matter. This is a herd of sheep.
Now give me back my dog.
AND THAT FOLKS IS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS ALL ABOUT!

Tá “Dravens Tales from the Crypt” faoi dhraíocht le breis agus 15 bliain le meascán gan blas den ghreann, iriseoireacht thromchúiseach – bunaithe ar imeachtaí reatha agus tuairisciú neamhchothrom sa phreas polaitiúil – agus zombies, garnished le go leor ealaíne, siamsaíochta agus rac-cheoil. Tá branda móréilimh bainte amach ag Dragon a chaitheamh aimsire nach féidir a rangú.
Ní raibh mo bhlag deartha riamh chun nuacht a scaipeadh, gan trácht ar bheith polaitiúil, ach le cúrsaí reatha ní féidir liom cabhrú ach faisnéis a ghabháil anseo a ndéantar cinsireacht air ar gach bealach eile. Tuigim go mb’fhéidir nach bhfuil cuma “tromchúiseach” ar an leathanach dearaidh maidir leis seo, ach ní athróidh mé é seo chun an “príomhshruth” a shásamh. Feiceann aon duine atá oscailte d’fhaisnéis nach gcomhlíonann an stát an t-ábhar agus ní an pacáistiú. Tá iarracht déanta agam go leor chun faisnéis a sholáthar do dhaoine le 2 bhliain anuas, ach thug mé faoi deara go tapa nach bhfuil tábhacht riamh leis an gcaoi a bhfuil sé "pacáilte", ach cad é dearcadh an duine eile ina leith. Níl mé ag iarraidh mil a chur ar bhéal aon duine chun freastal ar ionchais ar bhealach ar bith, mar sin coimeádfaidh mé an dearadh seo mar tá súil agam ag am éigin go mbeidh mé in ann stop a chur leis na ráitis pholaitiúla seo a dhéanamh, mar níl sé mar sprioc agam leanúint ar aghaidh. mar seo go deo 
Fágann mé faoi gach duine conas a dhéileálann siad leis. Mar sin féin, tá fáilte romhat go simplí a chóipeáil agus a dháileadh ar an ábhar, tá mo bhlag i gcónaí faoi na Ceadúnas WTFPL.
Is deacair liom cur síos a dhéanamh ar a bhfuil á dhéanamh agam anseo i ndáiríre, tá DravensTales anois ina bhlag cultúir, blag ceoil, blag turraing, blag ardteicneolaíochta, blag uafáis, blag spraoi, blag faoi mhíreanna aimsithe ar an idirlíon, aisteach ar an idirlíon, blag bruscar, blag ealaíne, téitheoir uisce, blag zeitgeist thar na blianta , Scrap blog agus blag mála grab ar a dtugtar. Gach rud atá ceart ... - agus fós nach bhfuil. Is í an ealaín chomhaimseartha príomhfhócas an bhlag, sa chiall is leithne den fhocal.
Chun oibriú an tsuímh a chinntiú, tá fáilte romhat chuig Déan síntiús le cárta creidmheasa, Paypal, Google Pay, Apple Pay nó cuntas dochair dhírigh/bainc. Míle buíochas do léitheoirí agus lucht tacaíochta uile an bhlag seo!
