This is awesome. I remember growing up in a small town, some guy smashed his pick-up truck into an outdoor ATM and actually made off with a bunch of cash. Then, a few nights later, he did it again. Deserves to go to jail, sure, but nothing like a good ol' heist to bring a smile to your face.

Earlier today I saw a video of a guy who tried to rob a small grocery store holding a palm tree and pulling his shirt up over his mouth as a disguise. I'd say that this guy is also a strong contender for Knucklehead Of The Day as well. By the way, I wonder if a palm tree is considered as a lethal weapon or not.
Another Einstein was a man who ordered his pet snake to attack the police during a domestic disturbance. Naturally, the snake didn't listen and the guy was arrested.
My all-time favorite was probably the stooge who covered his face with shaving cream as a disguise and tried to rob a store without a weapon or anything. He was virtually laughed out the door while being arrested.

I nominate Chuck Hagel who said he would consider running as VP if asked by McCain.
