http://www.wired.com/A thoughtful vicar in the German town of Lampoldshausen ordered 300 copies of a film portraying the life of Christ as told by the gospel according to Luke. A nice seasonal gift for the parishoners, he reasoned. Alas, there was a mistake at the video copying plant in Munich, which resulted in some of the flock receiving a very different kind of film. "It was a real porn film," the bemused vicar said. "We immediately got a reaction from five to seven people saying we must have sent them the wrong film." Undaunted, the good vicar will press ahead with the life-of-Christ video campaign. With a renewed sense of anticipation, who wouldn't?

That's the wrong way to tickle Mary, that's the wrong way to kiss!
Don't you know that, over here lad, they like it best like this!
Hooray, pour les français! Farewell, Angleterre!
We didn't know how to tickle Mary, but we learnt how, over there!

Blue is, for some reason, associated with porn, much like Red Lights are associated with hookers.

That was my first impression as well, but the title still fits, though it is somewhat obscure. Less obscure titles would include:Nathan F wrote:I was thinking of the Navy aerial demo team...

Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

Since I can bike to the Naval Academy if I wanted too, the planes came to my mind first. And I've never heard the other reference before either.

From what i read in the german news almost all videos were the wrong ones. Just a few customers wanted to watch them immediatly however, most let them lie around. It was just a few hours until they noted the mistake afterall.Nathan F wrote:The way I read it, only a few of the vids are the wrong ones...
BTW, the vikar is apparantly quite pleased with what happened. He pointed out that the 200 people who ordered the pornos most likely got the christian video instead.
