According this this article, it is possible for anyone to "spy" on a US Drone aircraft just by using a simple program from SkyGrabber.

If this is true, not only is it a huge /facepalm, but it is also a massive security leak for anyone who wants to see what the US Military is seeing.

There's nothing better than a US Government /facepalm

A german man visiting New Zealand was trying to smuggle geckos out of the country to sell them on the black market in Europe. He had 24 live geckos stuffed in his underwear along with 20 skins.

The value of the live geckos was around $50,000 on the black market in Europe. They didn't know how much the skins would go for.

I don't know about you, but I don't think I'd be putting any live animal in my drawers no matter what I was trying to do. I wonder how long a gecko could stay alive while stuffed into a guy's trousers anyway. My bet is they'd all be dead by the end of the flight. I know one thing...If I were a gecko that was stuffed in there, I'd be trying to bite my way out.

The best way to get out of jury duty is to make them believe that you really want to serve as a juror, but waste so much time asking random questions about the process that the lawyers don't want to keep you around.

I wonder what the lawyers said..."I'm sorry, Jesus, you are asking too many questions. We can't have you on the jury."

Another way is to legally change your name to Jesus Christ and wierd everyone out around you. Seriously, who changes their name to Jesus Christ? Sounds about as strange as changing your last name to Ochocinco

A couple of pilots were playing on their laptops during a flight and missed their destination by 150 miles. According to their employer, "Using laptops or engaging in activity unrelated to the pilots' command of the aircraft during flight is strictly against the airline's flight deck policies and violations of that policy will result in termination".

The airline gave every passenger a $500 voucher as an apology.

While what the pilots did was definetly a /facepalm, I kind of feel bad for them. What if they were playing a flight simulator on their laptops or something? I do agree with Engadget that it's a good thing they didn't have WiFi on the plane or who knows how far off course the plane would have gone while the pilots played World of Warcraft.

Some woman in Wisconsin got her hands on an unmarked short bus and tried to pick some kids up with it telling the kids that their normal bus broke down.

Of course, the kids said "no" because what kid would ever want to be seen on the short bus? From the sounds of it, there were probably no other kids on the bus either, which might have been a tip that it was dumb to get on. What could have possibly been going through this woman's mind to try to do this?

Where does one get an unmarked short yellow bus anyway?
