You both like messing with playful titles. I just recalled Alan Fotheringham writing about John Roberston of the Winnipeg Free Press. (both iconic Canadian journalists) Figured you'd get kick out of this.
Quote:
Like the time he was working out west. The boss was mad with him and made him work on the Christmas holidays.
A story came across the wire about a woman who stabbed her husband in the privates. His name was Oliver.
Robbertson's original headline:
"She decked the halls with balls of Ollie"
The boss demanded Robbie change it. Robbie did, waiting until moments before deadline, sending out the new head:
"You should have seen Oliver twist."
