OT - CNN

Stephen Baker said:

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.
Dumbfucks.

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 🙂

Probibly a lot of New Brunswick mud on then too, should dry nicely in
time. 🙂
