If you thought humans were not meant to fly, think again, for a Swiss pilot has just flown across the English Channel. What’s new, you may ask. Well, he did not pilot an aircraft over the channel but piloted his own body, in short, he just flew!

Is Apple closing up on the 8th of this month? If you haven’t heard about this scandalous piece of news, don’t be surprised. Blogger Toeman happened upon this juicy bit of news that he claims is an actual internal memo that an Apple employee sent him. The memo, intended for all Apple employees, is signed by CEO Steve Jobs. Jobs writes that it is time to close down Apple because after creating the best phones and laptops and outselling their competition, he isn’t able to find any other industry exciting enough to monopolise.

Jobs asks all employees to clear their desks by the end of the last working day as all of the office buildings would be immediately demolished. The memo moves from shocking to hilarious as Jobs happily tells his employees that he could be found playing for the Chicago White Sox or filling up as a quarterback with the Jets! Don’t keep your fingers crossed till Tuesday morning. If you believe Apple would close down at the apex of its career then you’ve been taken in by the biggest hoax of the century.
