Joke...

[Remote]

CANADIANS: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision.

AMERICANS: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the north to avoid a collision.

CANADIANS: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision.

AMERICANS: This is the captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.

CANADIANS: No, I say again, you divert YOUR course.

AMERICANS: This is the Aircraft Carrier US LINCOLN, the second largest ship in the United States Atlantic Fleet. We are accompanied with three Destroyers, three Cruisers and numerous support vessels. I DEMAND that you change your course 15 degrees north. I say again, that's one-five degrees north, or counter-measures will be undertaken to ensure the safety of this ship.

CANADIANS: This is a lighthouse. Your call.

Btw, this is a real radio conversation of a US naval ship with
Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October 1995. Radio conversation released by the chief of naval operations, 10-10-95.

when NASA and the Russian Space Agency met after the end of the cold war, they could for the first time discuss ideas and the problems that they had faced.

NASA: One of the problems we faced was how to write in space. You see, an ordinary ball-point pen won't work in zero gravity.

Russians: Yeah we know, so what was your solution?

NASA: Well we spent millions of dollars developing a special pen that had a tiny compressed air cylinder inside that would force the ink out when you pressed the pen against the paper. What did you guys do?

Russians: We used a pencil.

 

[Slougi]

hehe so true

 

[blizz]

It's only funny because it's true

 

[DuDe]

It ain`t true... That joke has like 10 different variations, each time with the Canadians changing into a different country. I myself remeber reading that joke way back in 93-94, and it was in a book that was printed in 91, only those weren`t Canadians in the joke, those were Russians. Still a funny joke though.

 

[2fast4u]

hehe, heard that one already. dunno if its true or not. its funny

 

[Remote]

I wouldn't expect it to be true, if it were they would never have released it, would they... But as long as they make me smile I don't really care if they are true or not...
