I really don't think this would occur in real life. | That is because it is a joke. It is not meant to be taken seriously.

Was it Bubba's big belly or the ski mounting that convinced you it was serious?
Yup, a northern (Swedish / Finish) AT gun mounted on a ski platform will go down huge in IRAQ.
Think hard, think CAMEL. Maybe even SAND.
Adler, you can send the Helicopters home now, Rocket Signtists have saved the day.

Country: | Its cold sun brewed tea. You dont drink it warm or with milk like you Brits do. I am rather fond of British tea as well though.

Country: | Actually what really made up my mind was the size of the gun. I mean it really looks like a WW1 museum piece, I have seen in the Brisbane Museum, Queensland in terms of size, which was intended for taking out tanks. If you had said they were tank hunters, I might have done a double-take but even that in this day and age would be preposterous... A gun that size would need to be mounted on a shock absorbing platform on the truck... | |
