Creativity and some laughs
These are some creative ads I must say!
This is a transcript of an actual radio conversation between a US Naval ship and Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October 1995.US SHIP: Please divert your course 0.5 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.
CANADIAN REPLY: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.
US SHIP: This is the Captain of the US Navy Ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.
CANADIAN REPLY: No, I say again, divert YOUR course!
US SHIP: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS NIMITZ. WE ARE A LARGE WARSHIP OF THE US NAVY. DIVERT YOUR COURSE NOW.
CANADIAN REPLY: This is a lighthouse. Your call
All of you have a wonderful weekend and send some warm sunshine if possible my way!

Thanks for the laugh Fuzzy. Have a great weekend. Did you get any of this snow? After nothing up until Jan 15, we had really cold for a month, now we have about 3 feet on the ground.
Oh well. It'll melt.
Peace.
