One of their Exocets blew up a British ship in the Falklands debacle.

Funny youtube though. I'm indulging myself in watching and hearing soul music greats, currently on an Otis Redding and a Curtis Mayfield kick.

It failed because they mixed Englash words with French...thus diluting the latter, pure language and causing a malfunction

Sorry to desapoint you guys but these soldiers are not french !!!!
Listen to the accent they are quebecois :p french speaking north americans !!
And regarding the Exocet, it was originally developed with the brits which is even more ironic :rolleyes:
And I will not start on good old US mistakes ;) too much to rant about :D

YouTube is my new TV I've been watching classic Tour de France stages from my heyday in the 80's.
