CNN has the following link on their ‘Top Stories’ list:
Viking ship to ply North Sea; no invasion planned.‘
Well thank god for the clarification. Granted our intelligence failures have been rather frequent lately. It’s good to know more than a thousand years after the fact we still need to specify when writing an article about Vikings setting out to sea. Many Northern Europeans will sleep softly again.
I just hope the Pirates don’t have anything to say about this.
As many of you know Piracy is still a problem many of us deal with on a daily basis. Some more than others. Recently, in what is becoming an all too common occurrence, Pirates attempted to raid a cruise liner off the coast of Somalia. The attack was thwarted by a quick-thinking sea captain and his trusty Sonic Weapon which managed to shoot bursts of earsplitting noise in a directed beam towards the pirates. This gave the sea captain enough time to get the hell out of there but not after the pirates got off a volley from their newly acquired bazooka. Pirates have been using cannons for centuries but this is the first time I can recall one using a bazooka.
Piracy has been on the rise world wide. Use the above image to note the most troublesome spots. Avoid them at all costs, that is unless you have a Sonic Weapon. It’s the only thing I know that will stop a pirate and that is only temporary because pirates are tenacious.
