A "3 point plan" is a rather common convention for describing how you plan to accomplish something. You hear it in business, in politics, etc.
My husband is always reminded of an episode of Southpark about underpants gnomes when he hears the term. For whatever reason, in this particular episode, there were underpants gnomes who had a 3 point plan. Their plan:
1. Steal everyone's underpants.
2. ????? (They didn't know what to do for step 2)
3. Profit.Not a very good plan, but then again, they are just underpants gnomes. ;)
Aren't you glad you asked?
