There has to be a muse for this type of thing, Dave. She might have just visited both of you with the same inspiration. Stranger things have happened.

The original lends itself to this subject, and once you come up with "crock of shit," everything else just sort of follows naturally if you want to bring it back to "And saw that it was good." I remember seeing a military version sometime in the late 80s, and it was titled "The Plan."

In any case, it's funny - probably because it has so much truth in it.
