More Headlines You'll Never See

Current headline on CNN.com:

"FBI director pushes for more funding to fight terrorism."

So back to my "headlines you'll never see" meme, I'm waiting for:

"Government Agency Director Says 'We have accomplished our task, please close us down.'"

"Cabinet Secretary Pushes for Reduced Budget as Problems are Deemed Less Urgent."

Feel free to contribute more ideas in the comments.
