Default Headline writers dream

Every so often a news story comes up where the headline writer finds him/herself all alone in the endzone, or with an off speed pitch hanging over the plate. Today's example from the BBC news website:

Sewer was blocked by large Pooh


The link explains it all. Totally safe for work/wife.
