Reuters, News dispatch: The new EXSOCET company missile has been found to have a defect. Since the guidance system was developed by accountants, it was seriously neglected, as missile rollout was April 15. Just as the missile is supposed to get on a good heading, it goes on a bad one. The company president gets credit for taking de bit in his mouth and sacking the proper authorities. Dave(the bad) was seen trying to launch one of these missiles from a floating volkswagon. Unfortunately it decimated the VW on lauch, then errantly exploded(but the report was late). The company is calling on a former stockholder(*ROSARIO*) because they have a desperate need to raise capitals. In unrelated news, the Pack bolstered their defensive line, and the Broncs gave Elway another tempting target in early draft action. This will set up another Super Bowl match in '98/99. EXSOCET traded 3 accountants to hapless Indianapolis for the salary of the worst player on the team, which would equal the best profit EXSOCET has made in a while. In a related agreement, Peyton Manning agreed to fire missiles for EXSOCET next season, as well as the missiles he'll fire for INDY for LINDY. Asked to comment, Manning said"If Dave(the bad) wants to do something on the water, he should stick to skipping ballyhoo for Marlin and Sails. Leave the missile firing to the experts like me." With Manning on board, EXSOCET officials feel a turnaround is in the offing, as long as they don't hire another CFO. Also in a related release, CET still hasn't noticed that they merged with the former EXSO. |
