College Town
I was recently in Westwood, home of UCLA. I saw a restaurant named Damon & Pythias. But it had a subtitle: "food for the gods." Shouldn't that be "food for friends who are waiting to be killed by the gods"?
I also picked up my free copy of the school paper, the Dailiy Bruin. I wish I could scan the following, but you'll have to take my word for it. On the front page was a piece entitled "Crazy In A Can," an expose of Four Loko. Fair enough, but like Damon and Pythias, it was the part after which caught my attention. It read "Look at this subhead; it's here to give you more info about the story!"

Not quite the same thing, but several years ago our newspaper ran a photo with the caption, "insert caption here."
If I were the publisher, I would have made sure to thank the layout person for going to that extra trouble.
The necessary objects and credential piece ideas have helped students around all those meaning.
