#2 I am reminded of a lady, over a hundred, highly respected in her town. So much so that her local newspaper pre-wrote her prospective obituary to highlight her importance. Then, through a serious screw up, published it under the headline, "Three die in drunken knife fight in local bar".

The old lady remarked that she preferred that obit headline to whatever the real one would eventually be.
