Re: RAF Carrier pigeon story

It reminds me of the story of a guy who tries a new kind of restaurant, sort of "Kentucky Fried Pigeon" proclaiming : arrival of fresh pigeons every day.
He orders one and a few minutes later calls for the waiter.
- Don't your ad claim that all your pigeons are fresh?
- Yes Sir. They are.
- Well, look. Mine had a ring.
- It happens sometimes, Sir.
- I found out there was a message inside the ring.
- Could be. Still it does not mean it is not fresh, Sir.
- Really? Read the message : "Tomorow we attack at dawn - Maréchal Foch."

Sorry for the OT!
