I read this headline many many years ago when it was re-printed in Private Eye:

“Mortuary Plan Meets Stiff Opposition”

and…a quote from an article, decades ago:

“The Margate Pier Committee has spent two million pounds in as many years”

Er…that’s it.

And a great headline from Hong Kong’s now defunct Eastern Express, done deliberately and refering to a female Hong Kong socialite (Teri Chao)who had gone to a clinic (in Miami, I think) to seek medical attention for a mild sexually transmitted disease she had contracted from her husband (millionaire property developer, Cecil Chao). Hat’s off to the sub-editor who managed to get this on the front page in big letters:

“Teri Comes Clean” :laughing:

I found this recent headline in the Taipei Times mildly amusing:

Alien counting on us to eat more chicken and honey

China Post today:

KMT Proposes Shooting Committee

That’s harsh even for them these days…
