    So where did you see this headline, and what was the article about? (The link you provided is dead.)

    The best headline ever is surely from The Economist's obituary of Zimbabwe's first president. It read:

    "Canaan Banana, clergyman, politician and rapist"

    My favorite is from years ago, the New Brunswick poloitician who found himself in hot water:

    Neary says he plans to think about resigning.

    I was living in Scotland when Caledonian Thistle staged a huge upset over Celtic in the Scottish Cup, leading to The Sun's fabulous headline:

    "Super Caley go ballistic, Celtic are atrocious"
