We have a joke in FDF, about army´s recruitment:Yes ,we are nice and friendly [Smile]
At least this is what we used to say to newcomers:)
A guy died, and when he went to the gates of heaven, the st peter said to him "we have this new experiment going on... you can spend one day in heaven, and one day in hell, and then decide which one do you want to spend the eternity"
The guy chose to check out the hell first. When he reached the gates of hell, there was the satan himself welcoming him. He seemed like a really nice guy. They entered the hell, and what did he see? there were beautifull girls everywhere, wine was flowing, and everyone seemed to have a great time. He spendt the night partying in the hell, and really enjoyed his visit.
Next day, he went to the heaven... there were some angels, sitting in the clouds, playing harp... it was pretty nice place, but awfully boring... there was just nothing to do... Somehow he managed to the next day, without dying(again) in boredom.
It was time to see the st peter again. St peter asked the guy, if he´s made up his mind, and the guy said "yes, i choose hell bacause i had a blast in there" So the st peter sendt him to the gates of hell.
As he knocked at hell´s gate it was opened, the guy was grabbed from the neck, and thrown violently inside... there was no sign of the parties which he had been in, couple of days earlier... just people beeing tortured and flames everywhere. The guy asked satan; "this looked totally different place, when i last visited here... people are been tortured, and everyone is feeling miserable... where are the girls and the wine?"
Satan replied;
"You see my dear friend... couple of days ago, we were recruiting you... Now you are part of the staff"

"If the thought of doing something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it."

Perfectly alright old boy. And whatever help you need, do let me know,
and I'll gladly move it along the old chain what? Setteling in I see. Good, good. Listen, just between you and me, they haven't mention dues atall have they? No? Well just like them to forget, I mean there is a war on, but see, thing is, some of these chaps have some rather expensive tastes, and keeping the mess, stocked, shall we say is becoming harder all the time. Anyway we'll talk about all that later once you found your way round. By the way, I'm quite sure they won't let you keep that in here, you should tie it up outside. Toodles.

Squadron dues:
Brits are charged twice as much as the Irish,
Scots promise to pay "next month",
the Welsh pay with farm animals,
the Germans refuse to pay,
the Austrians will pay only if the Germans pay,
the Dutch don't understand the concept of "giving" money,
the money from the Poles never quite makes it all the way through Germany,
the Scandinavians all send promisory notes that no one has been able to read yet,
the Yanks pay, but only when you remind them and the transfer, conversion and handling fees use it all up anyway,
and the Canadians pay in play money.

I thought I'd killed the thread.
...
Guys, be nice to MadMike, okay?!
Mike, if one of our aces gets on yer arse and starts gnawin' on you,
just start screaming, "I'm new! I'm new, please let me live!"
It may not stop him,
or even slow him down,
but newbs are worth fewer points.
Be good folk,
