EasyJet To Begin Testing Hybrid Planes

One way the budget airlines are able to offer such low airfare is by cutting costs. T’his means luggage fees, tighter seating, and now hybrid airplanes. How much can a hybrid fleet save a small airline like EasyJet? 35-million per year! This isn’t your typical hybrid though. Don’t expect an…

Hidden Fake Lotion Booze Flasks

If you have ever wanted to bring your hooch into a concert or sporting event to save a few bucks I wouldn’t fault you. At the last football game I went to the crappy beer was costing $10 for a 12-ounce pour. Not acceptable. Might be worth smuggling in some stronger…

Homeless Man Takes Credit Cards

As we, sadly, move towards a cashless society it has to be a bit tougher on the homeless people who often rely on cash from sympathetic folks. Heck, I have often said “sorry, I only have credit cards” to fend off the homeless folks in San Francisco. Well, “Honest Abe”,…

What Happens When You Drop An ATM From 100 Feet?

No surprise that ATM’s hold a bunch of cash. Knowing that, there is also no surprise that said ATM’s are built tough. They aren’t going to give up the loot too easily. Heck, even with a crowbar and hammer it is a very tough nut to crack. Watch what happens…
