MON AUG 12: HAVING A BAD DAY?

11:37am: Care to trade with this guy?

This is the entire contents of an email I got from a football teammate, and when I asked him for the source and result, he didn't have any answers, said it had been forwarded from a friend to whom it was forwarded from a friend:

AND YOU THINK YOUR HAVING A BAD DAY AT WORK !!

Although this looks like a picture taken from a Hollywood movie, it is in fact a real photo, taken near the South African coast during a military exercise by the British Navy.

It has been nominated by Geo as "THE photo of the year".

Well, that what the email said. You can draw your own conclusions, I'm just passing it along, but if that's a real photo, I'm not sure I want to know how it turned out...

Oh, and have a nice day...
