Operation Acoustic Kitty.

They attempted to surgically alter the cat by placing a bugging device inside him and running an antenna through its tail. The project took five years and $15 million dollars before the first field test hit a slight snag when the bugged kitty was released near a Russian compound in Washington and was immediately hit by a car while crossing the street.

This is the first time I have ever laughed out fucking loud for reals, by reading something.

The military, apparently, has a endless fantasies of killer/kamikaze animals. The dog tank thing I didn't know about-pretty fucking cool, in a way.

From my ancestor, King Harald Hardrada, in 1043 AD

'On one of his expeditions to affluent Sicily he came with his army to a populous town. He laid siege to it. But the walls were so strong that he began to doubt whether it would be possible to make a breach in them. Besides the burghers appeared to have plenty of provisions and all they needed for their defense.

Then Harald got one of his great ideas, and ordered his fowlers to catch the small birds that nested in the town and flew to the forest during the day in quest of food. He ordered his men to fasten splinters of inflammable wood, smeared with wax and sulfur, to the backs of the birds and set fire to them. Next the birds were set free. They flew straight away to the town to their young and their nests on the roofs of the houses, and those houses were thatched with reeds and straw. Fire dropped from the birds, and the birds were so many that the whole town soon was on fire.'

You logged in just to tell us you're related to that guy, didn't you?

I tried this once and found that small birds do not fly very far while dripping fire. It was a massive failure and I regret to inform you that, because I have failed, LA is still standing.
