Sometimes it DOES take a Rocket Scientist!! (true story)..

 

 

Scientists at Rolls Royce built a gun specifically to launch dead chickens

at the windshields of airliners and military jets all travelling at maximum velocity.

 

 

The idea is to simulate the frequent incidents of collisions with airborne fowl

to test the strength of the windshields.

 

American engineers heard about the gun and were eager to test it

on the Windshields of their new high speed trains.

 

 

Arrangements were made, and a gun was sent to the American engineers.

 

When the gun was fired, the engineers stood shocked as the chicken shot out of the barrel, crashed into the shatterproof shield, smashed it to smithereens,

blasted through the control console, snapped the engineer's back-rest in two

and embedded itself in the back wall of the cabin like an arrow shot from a bow..

 

The horrified Yanks sent Rolls Royce the disastrous results of the experiment,

along with the designs of the windshield and begged the British scientists for suggestions.

 

 

You're going to love this......

 

 

 

Rolls Royce responded with a one-line memo:

 

 

"Defrost the chicken."

saw them re-create this on mythbusters so yes strange but true

I am still chuckling over it, seems common sense has been lost over there as well.

As today is Star Ways Day .....

Luke and Obi-Wan are in a Chinese restaurant and Luke’s having trouble.
Finally, Obi-Wan says, “Use the forks, Luke.”

Darth Vader and Luke.
Suddenly in the middle of the fight, Darth Vader pulls Luke to him, and whispers “I know what you’re getting for Christmas!”
Luke exclaims “But how??!?”
“It’s true Luke, *breath* I know what you’re getting for Christmas.”
Luke tries to ignore this, but tears himself free, screaming “How could you know this?!”
Vader replies, “I felt your presents.”

What's for dinner Dad?
 - Wookie Steak
Is it any good?
 - It's a little chewy

Why is a droid mechanic never lonely?
Because he keeps making new friends.

Why should you never tell jokes on the Falcon?
The ship might crack up.

“What’s the difference between a lightsaber and a wookiee?”
“I don’t know.”
“You’d be a fine one to send after my lightsaber.”

Yoda and Obi-Wan walked into a bar and bought a 5 dollar drink.
Yoda, seeing that he only had 4 dollars asked Obi-Wan, “Have a dollar do you? A little short I am.”

Two droids were talking.
One says to the other, “Did you beat the Wookiee at Dejarikk?”
And the other answers, “Yes, but it cost me an arm and a leg.”

If you don't like Star Wars puns, you just read this for Alderaan reasons.

May the 4th be with you ....

NASA spent millions of dollars developing a pen that can write vertically, horizontally, in vacuum, and underwater.

The Russians used a pencil.
