Thread: why do Smart people ask the dumbest questions.

Today I had to go out to grab an R series mack for an upcoming exercise. Fair nuff says I, shirt on grab the phone the mp3 player and hop in a rover...

I look out to see sarge grabbing his hat and the keys to the white f)$# ute. He looks at me shakes his head and walks to the ute.

AS i climb into the passanger seat hes still shaking his head dumb founded and asks "Why is it that every single time you have to go somewhere you take a landie?" I really feel like answering cause Im a holden man but we dont have holdens. With him being a holden nutter that would have gotten me a great end of year review... however what really transpired was this

"Cause theres always one about... Im the only bloke who here who likes to drive em so I dont ever have to wait for wheels and theres another reason you'll find out about shortly."

At this point in time hes obviuosly happy with that answer and we head off to brissy to pick up said mack. We hit 90 and this things shaking harder than a jack hammer in an earthquake and its getting worse as we speed up. He looks over at me and asks if I knew the vehicle was like this.

"yup everyone uses it, no one looks after it, its a company car, no- one cares. The rovers on the other hand have 5 mechanics to look after them and Im the only one who cares to drive em."

He laughed rand turned up the radio to mask the sounds of impending death of another f($#.

My dad has this sarge that used to think he was god in the sixties, he had a swagger stick and would poke prod and hit the diggers with it, he was quiet proud of his stick, Dad got sick of this guy he snuck into the Sarges offices took the swagger stick and left a pile of sawdust on the table, this went down like a lead fart and nearly the whole of 27RSAR was put on a fizzer, they never found out who perpetrated the act, Damn funny I reckon.
