A Florida man charged with assault and armed robbery pleaded insanity at his trial in Panama City – and tried to convince jurors of his diminished state by mooning them and hooting “cuckoo-cuckoo.”

But Cornell Jackson, 29, apparently wasn’t convincing enough.

Immediately after, he was hauled from the courtroom to a holding cell, where he watched the remainder of his trial on closed-circuit TV.

It took jurors only 30 minutes to find him guilty.

Some U.S servicemen stationed in Iraq get care packages from home – others get “air” packages.

Delaware mom Frankie Mayo sent 28 air-conditioners to U.S. troops after she found out the temperature in her MP son’s tent is 145 degrees. And she’s raising funds to send another 172 units.

Her son, Cpl. Chris Tomlinson, 21, thinks his mother is pretty cool.

A 6-year-old Texas boy took his babysitter’s car keys and drove 30 miles on busy highways and downtown streets searching for his mother.

The boy smashed into three cars without causing any injuries.

A rapist in Saline, Mich., apparently has read more than a few police procedurals. After he attacked his victim, he made her shower and then he fled with all her bedding.

Police believe he was taking great pains to leave no clues behind in the woman’s ground-floor apartment.

But he did leave an impression. The woman described him as “chunky” 5-foot-11, with a hairy back, dark square tattoo on his left forearm, and a “chubby” face with a short mustache.

Charles Weinstein of Glasgow, Del., trained himself to sign his name upside down eight years ago so he could put a unique John Hancock on all his checks, credit cards and official papers.

No one objected until this week – when a clerk in the state Division of Motor Vehicles found his signature “unacceptable” and denied him a new driver’s license.

When Weinstein tried to send a notarized letter of protest to the DMV, as required by the state, he hit a Catch-22. He didn’t have a DMV photo ID to prove who he was.
