A man walked into a Louisiana Circle-K, put a $20 bill on the counter
and asked for change. When the clerk opened the cash drawer, the man
pulled a gun and asked for all the cash in the register, which the
clerk promptly provided. The man took the cash from the clerk and
fled, leaving the $20 bill on the counter. The total amount of cash he
got from the drawer? Fifteen dollars. [If someone points a gun at you
and gives you money, was a crime committed?]
Send this story to a friend 1 The British Military writes OFR's (officer fitness
reports). The form used for Royal Navy and Marines fitness reports is
the S206. The following are actual excerpts taken from people's
"206's".... His men would follow him anywhere, but only out of
curiosity. I would not breed from this Officer. This Officer is really
not so much of a has-been, but more of a definitely won't-be. When she
opens her mouth, it seems that this is only to change whichever foot
was previously in there. He has carried out each and every one of his
duties to his entire satisfaction. He would be out of his depth in a
car park puddle. Technically sound, but socially impossible. This
Officer reminds me very much of a gyroscope - always spinning around
at a frantic pace, but not really going anywhere. This young lady has
delusions of adequacy. When he joined my ship, this Officer was
something of a granny; since then he has aged considerably. Since my
last report he has reached rock bottom, and has started to dig. She
sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve
them. He has the wisdom of youth, and the energy of old age. In my
opinion this pilot should not be authorized to fly below 250 feet.
Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in
a trap This man is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot. Only
occasionally wets himself under pressure

to launch dead chickens at the windshields of airliners, military jets
and the space shuttle, all traveling at maximum velocity. The idea is
to simulate the frequent incidents of collisions with airborne fowl to
test the strength of the windshields. British engineers heard about
the gun and were eager to test it on the windshields of their new
high-speed trains. Arrangements were made. But when the gun was fired,
the engineers stood shocked as the chicken hurtled out of the barrel,
crashed into the shatterproof shield, smashed it to smithereens,
crashed through the control console, snapped the engineer's backrest
in two and embedded itself in the back of the cabin. Horrified, the
Britons sent NASA the disastrous results of the experiment, along with
the designs of the windshield, and begged the U.S. scientists for
suggestions. NASA's response was just one sentence, "Thaw the
chicken."
