have a break, have a little laugh

Back to the embrace of civilisation again, though only for a few hours. There was this small incident that even I got quite amused myself.

I was reading a book when I came across this description 'trapped in a tank with a banshee'. The first image that came to mind was literally a tank - an amoured one. Now there was absolutely nothing wrong with that, except the story was set in medieval times, where the most advanced form of weaponry was probably the crossbow. For that short moment I failed to fathom why the story had tanks in it. It soon dawned on me that the tank used in the story was a storage tank, as opposed to the armoured tank I was visualising.

I had quite a laugh at myself. Corruption of the mind by SAF, or perhaps retardation.
