Goats Fix Jet
September 5th, 2007
Well heres a new way to deal with technical difficulties… find an unrelated animal and kill it as an offering to a machine. Way to live in the dark ages guys!
Airline authorities in medieval nation of Nepal have sacrificed two goats in a effort to end aircraft technical issues.
The goats were sacraficed in front of a Boeing 747 jey at the international airport in Nepal after it starting having an electrical problem.
Officials hoped the offering would make happy the Hindu sky God , and in return the god would grant blessings to the jet.
The Nepal airlines, which posesses two Boeing jets, has had to pause some fights in recent time because of problem.
Nepal Airlines says the sacrifice - done in accordance with Hindu practicess - was effective and they are performing services as normal
That area is home to the Newa tribe, whose history is loaded with rituals and pageantry.
In one very odd tradition, menstruating girls are taken from boys and kept in a competely dark room for 12 days.
On the 12th day, the young lady then worships the sun.
I wonder, does the education curriculum include science?
