EUROPEAN ANTHEM- ODE TO JOY
This is the first time I have really enjoyed the singing of the European Anthem.

Two Texas Highway Patrol Officers were conducting
speeding enforcement on Highway 77, just south of Kingsville, Texas. One of the
officers was using a hand-held radar device to check speeding vehicles
approaching the town of Kingsville.
The officers were suddenly surprised when the radar
gun began reading 300 miles per hour and climbing. The officer attempted to
reset the radar gun, but it would not reset and then it suddenly turned
off.
Just then a deafening roar over the mesquite treetops
on Highway 77 revealed that the radar had in fact, locked on to a USMC F/A-18
Hornet which was engaged in a low-flying exercise near its Naval Air home base
location in Kingsville.
Back at the Texas Highway Patrol Headquarters in
Corpus Christi the Patrol Captain fired off a complaint to the U. S. Naval Base
Commander in Kingsville for shutting down his equipment.
The reply came back in true USMC
style:
"Thank you for your letter…
"You may be interested to know that the tactical
computer in the Hornet had detected the presence of, and subsequently locked on
to, your hostile radar equipment and automatically sent a jamming signal back to
it, which is why it shut down."
"Furthermore, an air-to-ground missile aboard the
fully armed aircraft had also automatically locked on to your equipment's
location."
"Fortunately, the marine pilot flying the Hornet
recognized the situation for what it was, quickly responded to the missile
system alert status and was able to override the automated defense system before
the missile was launched to destroy the hostile radar position on the side of
Highway 77, south of Kingsville."
"The pilot suggests you cover your mouths when
swearing at them, since the video systems on these jets are very high tech.
Sergeant Johnson, the officer holding the radar gun, should get his dentist to
check his left molar. It appears the filling is loose. Also, the snap on his
holster is broken.”
