OT - CNN

In an oarticle on problems with UK helicopters, CNN
bravely puts on the web:

"Britain's National Audit Office (NAO) also said that
eight new helicopters worth hundred of million of dollars
have been rendered almost unusual because of a botched
equipment order."

I'd love to know what could make a Chinook "almost
unusual"...

That's the problem with spell-checkers. Someone needs to
come out with a "what I meant" checker.

I got an application error at work yesterday warning me to
"Verify that the computer and share names were entered
*conrrectly*"

I had to screen shot that bad boy.

Maybe they got shipped to the military in neon pink and
purple paint? That would be a nice twist to drab grey
and green.

That would definatly qualify then as unusual. Course us
Canadians are already past that, we send our troups to a
desert country in lovely green so they blend in nicely.

Heheheh, stupid fcukers!

Still not as stupid as the fcukers that bought these things
for front line use, when they can only fly in clear, fog-
less and cloudless skies.

We didn't wash the mud off our vehicles so there's lots of
Alberta grass growing in Afghanistan now. Give it another
year or two and the uniforms will blend right in 🙂
