New Stadium on the way

When I was stationed in Naples, Italy, an RAF helicopter developed some mechanical problems and landed at Capodichino. It was a great crew. Had a blast talking with them. We definately looked at each other funny a few times, the 'What was that?' look.

At one point a pilot asked to borrow a 'Torch'. I told him he couldnt light it near the fuel or the aircraft. We then proceeded to bust up laughing since I realized what he meant as soon as he realized what I thought he meant.

Although after a steady dose of Benny Hill during my childhood, I should be more bi-lingual [8D]

Yeah I understand, when I lived in England the whole torch thing was always screwing me up

When I read that, it reminded me of when I used to work customer service for a company that did monthly payment plans for college tuition. I got a call from one student, and when I pulled him up in the system I saw that his last name was Spanks.

So, naturally, I looked to see if his mother's name was Fanny. It wasn't.
