Disaster@work Posted October 13, 2000 Share Posted October 13, 2000 This is one of my alltime favourite Onion articles: Clinton deploys vowels to Bosnia Cities of Silbvjnsv, Grzny to be first recipients http://www.theonion.com/onion2816/vowels2816.html Before an emergency joint session of Congress yesterday, President Clinton announced U.S. plans to deploy over 75,000 vowels to the war-torn region of Bosnia. The deployment, the largest of its kind in American history, will provide the region with the critically needed letters A, E, I, O and U, and is hoped to render countless Bosnian names more pronounceable. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't notice "brown skin" listed as an 'enemy feature' in the accompanying graphic before. That's really funny. ------------------ ---- To download my scenarios: go to http://www3.telus.net/pop_n_fresh/combatmiss/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chupacabra Posted October 14, 2000 Share Posted October 14, 2000 On this general subject - I think I consider myself a historian. That is to say, I've spent more of my life studying history than I've done doing anything else. And boy, is history ever nasty. Scratch a simple topic, and you'll get a war. Religions butt heads, political ideologies butt heads, economic perogatives butt heads. But if we can't laugh at human folly, well, what else is there? ------------------ Soy super bien, soy super super bien, soy bien bien super bien bien bien super super.

Pvt. Ryan Posted October 14, 2000 Share Posted October 14, 2000 What I found un-funny about the article originally posted by Maxx is that unfortunately there are a lot of people that would really like to see some of those things happen. Other than that, I do see the humor. As someone who lost almost his entire family at the hands of the Nazis, I find it a bit difficult to laugh.
