Apple Importing Chinese Orphans To Work In U.S.

Apple Importing Chinese Orphans To Work In U.S.
By all accounts, the kids are excited to get to work in the land of opportunity.

CUPERTINO, Calif. (CAP) - Apple's plans to move certain production facilities to the U.S. is expected to create jobs for at least 200 child orphans the company will import from Chengdu, China.

"We've been looking for years to do more in the U.S.," said Apple CEO Tim Cook. "Unfortunately, the U.S. has a notoriously low supply of orphans with the skills to assemble high-tech equipment."

Cook said he believes the U.S. education system is failing to produce enough orphans with the skills needed for modern manufacturing processes, much less the stamina to work for 14 hours a day without needing a break, or food.

"We're hoping the new Mac project will help spur orphanages to give young workers the training they need," Cook said. He also that in order to bypass U.S. laws that would require Apple to pay the orphans more than their standard $25 a week, the operation would be placed on a riverboat operating in international waters off the coast of California.

"And we may even let them take naps now and again, just to avoid any problems with their output," said Cook, presumably referring to the iPhone maps software that urged users to "kill kill kill," resulting in more than 200 attempted murders.

BlackBerry CEO Guns For Appearance On Shark Tank

LOS ANGELES (CAP) - BlackBerry CEO Thorsten Heins is pulling out all the stops to try to save his ailing company as he tells CAP News that he has pitched television network ABC to appear on an upcoming episode of the hit series Shark Tank.

"Do you see the kind of money those guys are throwing at those rinky-dink businesses?" Heins said during a recent phone interview. "We have a solid product, we have a solid track record, and we have a solid user base.

"Okay, one out of three ain't bad," he added. "But imagine the opportunities I could squander with all their money."


Upstart Horsemeat Industry Fights Negative Stereotypes
Upstart Horsemeat Industry Fights Negative Stereotypes

PURCELLVILLE, Vir. (CAP) - When Wayne Rooney tells people what he does for a living, he's usually met with some measure of disdain, if not downright disgust. Wayne is a horse breeder, and owner and proprietor of Comestible Colt Farms in this small Loudoun Valley town.

Except Wayne doesn't breed horses for show or for racing - he breeds them for eating.

"I love every one of my horses from the moment they're born right up until they're on a plate with a baked potato and a side of steamed broccoli," says Rooney. "Splash on a little bit of A1 sauce ... whoo-wee! That's good eatin'."

"But I think if anyone can make fat people cool, it's me." «» U.S. logging industry officials say these days, loggers are chopping down trees "just because" it's all they know how to do. "With the ailing housing market, dying newspaper industry and paperless billing, people aren't using as many trees," said one contractor. "Maybe some day people will need more fence posts." «» Fox News officials say the group who hijacked the Associated Press' Twitter account also hijacked their entire network during the manhunt for the second Boston Marathon bombing suspect.
