Man goes to the newsstand.
Picks up a newspaper, and looks at the front page. Puts it back down.
Day 2: Repeats the same thing.
Day 3: Repeats the same action. This time as he puts the paper back down the Newsstand Operator asks him: "What are you looking for?
Man: "The obituaries.".
Operator: "They're in the back, not on the front page.".
Man: "This one will.".
