Scientists create remote-controlled pigeon
Cue up the Tom Lehrer song and polish up that Nobel Prize!

Still no solution for world hunger. Maybe the pigeons are edible. Remote-controlled squab that feeds the multitudes?

OK, now let me see. I have my Ph.D in Engineering, what will I work on? A way to bring fresh water to cholera-plagued villages? Nah. How about a remote-controlled pigeon!

The best thing about the story is the final line: "The report did not specify what purpose the pigeons may perform."
