Wink 1st April

Since it is the 1st of April, there is still someone with a sense of humor. Seen today in The Repuplikein, Newspaper in Windhoek, Namibia.

http://www.republikein.com.na/conten...l/01_april.php

For all the non-afrikaans speakers, it is a report of a road around Windhoek being closed for the transport of landmine resistant vehicles to be transported via Walvis Bay to the Al Faw Bübiyan harbour in Iraq. Business owners are also urged in the spirit of national reconciliation to pay workers double pay if they do not turn up for work in time. 26 Oil boreholes at Al Nö Wh're will be the payment for the first 210 vehicles. Then is stil a further 290 vehicles that will have to be delivered.

Old Uncle Sam will be very happy to see that his army can get rid of so many vehicles and still have enough left to defend the country!
