BAGRAM AIR BASE, AFGHANISTAN - An MQ-1 predator drone has been grounded after the system began airing reruns of past strikes. An anonymous source reported Air Force controllers alerted superiors that the terrain and targets appearing on the drone's cameras were from missions conducted three months prior. "We're not sure why this is happening," said the source. "Intelligence says its not Iranian hacking, so WTF, you know?" Air Force technicians are investigating the glitch in conjunction with tests run by manufacturer General Atomics Aerenautical Systems. However, in an ominous sign, unconfirmed reports have surfaced that a CIA drone recently aired an old episode of That 70s Show, while another drone played back the 1987 Preakness, won by Alysheba.
