Mornings with Danny and Laura on 91.5 CKPR

So what's wrong with a military helicopter landing in an empty baseball field to run across the street for a burger?

It happened last Thursday, when the chopper landed in Kenora to refuel. The reports say there was no food at the airport, so the pilot found a nearby A&W across the street from the ball diamond.

Now there are reports that the incident will be investigated.

Do we really have that little confidence in the judgement of our military? They would not have landed where they did if caused any kind of threat to those around them.

Seriously, while I think they should have been supplied food for a long journey...from the garrison at Canadian Forces Base Edmonton to Thunder Bay then on to Quebec, that's quite a long day to go without food. And if there was nothing at the airport, who can blame them for travelling a bit to the nearest drive through? Okay, they may have been supplied with food for all we know...but they were hungry enough to make a stop....

It made for a fun story to talk about.....

WATER COOLER CONVERSATION.....

The University Of Toronto revealed that more than 70% of parents say they teach their kids that LYING is wrong an unacceptable. Meanwhile, 4 out of 5 parents admit that they regularly lie to their kids.

According to a new British study, left-handed children are more likely to enjoy school and get along with their teachers than those who are right-handed. The study of 2,000 kids aged 7-to-11 found a larger percentage of lefties look forward to heading off to school each day and are also more likely to describe their relationship with their teachers as ‘very good’.
