So here goes the first blooper from Mumbai Mirror. The story was about the US President's 'Doomsday Plane'. Though the story was taken from the agencies, I believe Mumbai Mirror has a sub editor at the desk.
Washington: It costs an astronomical $200 million, can stay in the air for days without refuelling, and is build to protect the US President, his Secretary of Defence (have you heard of a President's Secretary of Defence? Well, I haven't), Joint Chiefs of Staff and other key personnel.
Able to launch within minutes, the ‘doomsday plane’ offers protection from the ultimate worst-case scenarios (it is like saying 'the worstest'), including nuclear attacks and meteor strikes from outer space (wow...I am yet to hear of a meteor strike from the stratosphere).
People travelling on board can communicate with anyone on the ground and even submarines can be reached underwater when a five-mile long cable is extended from the back of the plane (funny isn't it? A submarine being towed by an aircraft. And why do you need a cable to communicate with a submarine?).
Mobilised hours after the 9/11 terror strikes, the world’s most impressive plane runs on 1,65,000 pounds of state of the art electronics (I thought planes run on Aviation Turbine Fuel) and is protected by an electromagnetic pulse shield.
Onboard equipment is so powerful a specially upgraded air conditioning system (upgraded from what to what?) is needed to keep it cool (otherwise it will lose its cool) - and a specially trained team of tech-whizzes stay on board to man the devices.

Cool... looks like someone might lose his job because of you.
ReplyDeleteOh lemme write in the language of the paper: He looks like someone that might loose your job because of him
