The Soviet army is marching in Finland
They hear a voice from the other side of a hill, "one Finnish soldier is better than ten Soviet soldiers."
The Soviet general sends ten soldiers. There is some gunfire then everything is quiet again. The voice then says, "one Finnish soldier is better than one hundred Soviet soldiers."
The Soviet general sends one hundred Soviet soldiers. There is more gunfire and then silence. The voice speaks up again and says, "one Finnish soldier is better than one thousand Soviet soldiers."
The Soviet general then sends one thousand Soviet soldiers. There is a lot of gunfire and then silence. After awhile a Soviet soldier crawls over the hill and say to the general, "do not send more troops, it's a trap, there are two Finnish soldiers."

Good Morning Humans
Monday Morning March Time!
Up and Atom! Nuke’em till they glow. Wake up and smell the coffee. It’s almost Show Time.
Hope y’all have a successful launch and a soft landing today. It’s a good day for excellence in everything you have to pay attention to.
So roll out and shake the sleep from your eyes. It’s time for action.

Morning everyone.
Another pretty day with decent temperatures in NELA. Getting to where the sun is out late enough to get some things done after 5pm too.
Hope everyone has a good day!
