Why do people post decade-old bits of dubious humorous merit as if nobody had ever seen them before?

The only thing about hell we don't have here is the heat

and I don't have central air. One reason I do it is to save money. I don't want a $200 power bill.

That be annual??!!

Do homeless people always have a shopping cart, it's not like they have any money to buy stuff?

It could be a problem with the button and not the batteries.

If the Persians were set to rout your army and you needed to get reinforcements from Sparta ASAP would YOU care about public hygeine?

[DRoseDARs]

Yes, because the Persians could follow the trail of "breadcrumbs" to my center of military operations or give away the position of my secret bunker.

Actually, many Kamikaze missions did not end in the plane's destruction since a decent target could not be found, or the conditions were too iffy for a good hit. The pilots were urged not to throw away their lives even if they didn't manage on that flight - there was always the next one. Therefore it would have made sense to have the pilots wear helmets. Of course, helmets weren't really used back then as BeBro alreay said.

On the other hand, I seem to recall that kamikaze planes didn't even have enough fuel for a return trip.

You'd think they'd load it with as much fuel as they could. One of the reasons why the 911 attacks were so effective was that the planes were loaded with fuel as they had only just left the ground...

[Ben Kenobi]

Fuel scarcity.

The terrorists didn't have to worry about their overall fuel supply.
