Hey guys...I have a joke for you (Canadians will love it :P)
Hope everyone is well...thought I'd stop by and share this with you (a friend just emailed it to me).
This is the actual 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.
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'* one-five degrees north, or counter-measures will be
launched to ensure the safety of this ship.
CANADIANS: This is a lighthouse. Your call.
