How many whistles and degrees have you won?
Or how well do you manage your only one?
HOW FAR ANYWAY?
The prosperous rancher proudly pushes his case:
“I can drive all day long and still be on my place!”
The grizzled old cowboy with hair and teeth few:
“you got nothin’ on me; I got a truck like that, too!”

And how long is a piece of string. 
Ah, Zen.
I think whistles are like a journey. The destination isn’t as critical as enjoying the whole experience.
Of course, the WHOA answer is “One short of enough”?
Whistles and degrees are disparate things
And really don’t seem to share a lot.
Tis not how many you may have gained
But how you handle the ones you’ve got.
