That we lost the emu war.....this is a true story, below is a funnier version of the true event. You can google the real details.

............
The Emu War, also known as the Great Emu War, was a war fought between the country of Australia and a flock of emus. It is still remembered in Australia today as the greatest defeat ever incurred on the Australian nation and her subjects. It was fought from the 2nd to the 8th November 1932 between 20,000 emus, under the command of the Lord High Emu, and 2 soldiers of the 7th Heavy Battery, Royal Australian Artillery under the command of Major G.P.W. Meredith. Each soldier was equipped with a Lewis Machine Gun, 10,000 rounds of ammunition, and both had received an award in clay pigeon shooting.

They are getting bloody clever with them these days.
I almost answered an email scam recently as it was from my bank and looked the same as what they send but it was on the wrong email address.
The a$$holes doing this are making a lot of money and obviously do not have any morals.
