Tannoy Announcements at Heathrow
One of my friends sent me this in e-mail, and I haven't seen it before so thought I'd share it.
Two guys went to Heathrow airport and gave in obscure names that when pronounced, said... well you'll see what they said.
They then recorded them, and you can double-click them to hear them.
It's a high-class version of Bart Simpson phoning up Moe's Tavern really.
But it's quite funny.
Anyway:

Re: Tannoy Announcements at Heathrow
Because it shows you what the names of the people were, what they were translated as, and the sound file next to it.

Re: Tannoy Announcements at Heathrow

Word does the job fine.
I expect they don't particularly care about how it was spread around the internet.

Re: Tannoy Announcements at Heathrow

Re: Tannoy Announcements at Heathrow
I remember reading this while waiting for a flight at Kitty Hawk right around 1903 or so...

Re: Tannoy Announcements at Heathrow
There were, but back then they were Colonial Subjects and the only thing they knew how to mix was a G&T, not nitroglycerine...
