Bombs Away

The U.S. misplaced five cruise missiles armed with nuclear warheads last week but don't worry, they turned up. Mistakenly mounted on the wings of a B-52 bomber that flew from North Dakota to Louisiana, but hey, at least they were found. Luckily it wasn't a bombing training run. The AFP news agency says President Bush was informed of the mix-up. "Mistakes happen," he probably said. "I once wanted to send troops to Iran but said Iraq by accident. Heh-heh-heh. Good thing I didn't say France by mistake. Hmmmm, maybe I should have. Hey, do you think those cruise missiles could be those WMD things we were looking for?"
