Military AircrewA forum for the professionals who fly the non-civilian hardware, and the backroom boys and girls without whom nothing would leave the ground. Army, Navy and Airforces of the World, all equally welcome here.
From Gordon Brown leaning against the wing...
"Och no! They'll only want more of the darn things now he's told them it works. How am I going to pay for my pre-election budget bribes now?"
(alternative ending - "how am I going to pay for my op to make me in to one of the Hooters girls now?!")
"Alan Titchmarsh was today horrified to see his latest makeover project, a patio garden, completely flattened by the careless positioning of a British Aerospace jet".
"It's way too expensive, five year's overdue and it's crap anyway" said Johhny Testpilot, and with that the British Aerospace salesman knew his Jedi mind trick just didn't work.
More than 24 hours have passed since the last entry for round 3, so it seems like a good time to announce a winner. There's also the fact that I'll be a long way from my lovely broadband connection for the next ten days.
I enjoyed all the entries, and I got a wry smile from some very clever barbs directed at sundry targets.
But in the end, there has to be one winner, and it was the one that made me laugh out loud with its comic reading of the picture, namely that the suited man is envying the attention his growbag-wearing mate is getting:
By that you mean not totally cr@p food, I guess! Hooters is not renowned in my grouping for its "nice food". Now its nice beer and nice women are a different story and anything that soaks up the yellow foaming whilst you stand/sit and engage the Hooters Girls will, by necessity, have to do!
It's called being subtle and tongue-in-cheek. I thought it sounded better and marginally more intellectual than "Young girls with big tits serving beer!"

Sadly, since the advent of nanny state political correctness, that delightful description of Hooters' serving staff is no longer universally accurate.....
Nearly a fortnight's elapsed since the last round's winner was announced. Milt's neither acknowledged his victory, nor provided a picture for the next round.
I'm minded to announce a substitute winner. Please object now if you consider that unfair.
