Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 4,525 Posted August 28 Good on the pilot or whoever for telling the sweet li'l news reporter what the likely cause was.... Bet their switchboard lit right up (metaphorically speaking)! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 4,525 Posted August 28 Reminds me of my son coming back from Scout Camp one year: "Dad... I was taking a class for my Personal Fitness merit badge. When we were doing the part on nutrition, the counselor asked for suggestions of good, nutritious foods. When he called on me I suggested 'Soylent Green.' He agreed, and said 'Yup! That's good for you!'" 1 10 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
