I quit reading, or rather trying to read, one of our local newspapers when a story of a visiting head of state was pictured being greeted by dignitaries upon arrival at an airport.
The picture used,about a 5x7 inch photo, showed an attractive girl in a bikini on a beach,this ran in all editions of that newspaper that day.

Now to justify inclusion in this thread, you will have to smoke something while constructing a reply. A slow burning Churchill sized cigar,or perhaps a pipe or two is advised.Along with something to drink of course.
