Heartwarming honesty

A  small boy was lost at a large shopping  Centre. 
He  approached a uniformed policeman and said, 'I've  lost my pop!' 
'The  cop asked, 'What's he  like?' 
The  little boy hesitated for a moment and then  replied, 
' Bundaberg  Rum and sheilas with big  tits.'

Thanks to Ron (The oldest gent I know)


Tilt-shift Maker

This might seem a bit geeky but if you’re into photographic art you may know something about Tilt-shifting.

Tilt-Shift miniature faking is a creative technique whereby a photograph of a life-size location or object is manipulated to give an optical illusion of a photograph of a miniature scale model. There’s some neat examples here.

Via AttuWorld Nederland I found this TiltShiftMaker site that allows you  to upload an image or select a web-photo and then customize your own tilt-shift of your photo. This is a quicky I tried:

Amsterdam Canal : Original Left, Tilt-Shift on the right. Cool eh.

Someone has to ask: Who fucked the Pound?

Spotted this neat generator where you can pose "Millionaire Questions". Hope you like my choice.

I shall admit the real and only candidate was Twat McBrown, but you can see how useful this resource can be.

 

The site is in French. Click the red button labelled "Remis cette image" and enter your question and four responses, tick the agreement and away you go. Great fun.

 


Marine Corp Pilot

In addition to communicating with the local air traffic control facility, aircraft are required to give the Iranian Air Defense Radar (military) a ten minute 'heads up' that they will be transiting Iranian airspace.

This is a common procedure for commercial aircraft and involves giving them your call sign, transponder code, type aircraft, and points of origin and destination.

I just flew with a guy who overheard this conversation on the VHF Guard (emergency) frequency 121.5 MHz while flying from Europe to Dubai .

It's too good not to pass along. The conversation went something like this...

Air Defense Radar: 'Unknown aircraft at (location unknown), you are in Iranian airspace. Identify yourself.'

Aircraft: 'This is a United States aircraft. I am in Iraqi airspace.'

Air Defense Radar: 'You are in Iranian airspace. If you do not depart our airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!' 

Aircraft: 'This is a United States FA-18 fighter. Send 'em up!' 

Air Defense Radar: (no response ... total silence)
