A paperboy is selling newspapers in Red Square. A man drives up, buys a newspaper, looks at the front page, and throws it on the ground. The next day, the same thing happens. This goes on for a week. Finally,

Man in car: I’m looking for an obituary.
Newspaper boy: But sir, the obituaries are in section B.
Man in car: The one I want will be on the front page.
