Re: Today In My Workplace...

:uuh: Crashing is not a good thing -in your work.  In my Army Days (1973)  I was once  in a parked jeep that was hit in the rear (ran over) -by an M-60 Tank and was the only lucky one to escape.

Tormie, had  'a unique way of saluating high-ranking officers
I believe... (though I'd like   'to see a render of that )

A young Italian Man (GUESS WHO)  is in the paratroopers
and gets sent to where he's stationed with Americans
but he speaks no English. 

After looking at monuments, around the base,  he of coarse,  gets lost. 
It is midday and he is getting hungry... 
he takes out his dictionary and starts looking at buildings  to find a 
restaurant, 
    Chemist = farmacia,       - No! 
    Newsagent=Giornalaio.   - No! 
    Real  Estate=Immobiliare. No!    ...and so on 
until he  sees   'a  sign   "HOT DOGS" 

He looks at the translation and thinks " They  eat dogs, how disgusting!... " 
After looking around some more, he  cannot find another restaurant 
and thinks: I'm hungry, and   'if they can  eat dogs,  -so can I!. 
He goes in, takes out his dictionary and with  'apprehension
 orders  -one hot dog. 
When the waitress brings him   the hot dog, he looks at it for a 
moment and says: 
- Please... I will eat   any part of of the dog ... except -'THAT ONE!...
