Sarge, you seem to have tapped into the 'Motherload' of great newspaper headlines! Keep 'em coming my man - keep 'em coming.

I wonder if anyone can come up with any non humerous ones that also qualify for the title 'great'. The UK paper The Sun can possibly claim one of the most shameful with it's 'GOTCHA' headline following the sinking of the General Belgrano (illegally as it happens) in which 323 Argentinians died during the Falklands campaign of 1982.
President of Peace? You fucking idiots!

"I know what America is. America is a thing that you can move very easily. Move it in the right direction. They won't get in the way." (Benjamin Netenyahu 2001.)

....and the glory of the world becomes less than it was....
'Have we not served you well'
'Of course - you know you have.'
'Then let it end.'

My local rag ran with 'Pussy Panto Comes To Tregony' and 'Cornish Women an Untapped Resource', an unfortunate choice, to 'tap up a bird' being a cornish euphamism for ....er.... well....'putting the bite' on her!
