But! I think I have a new runner-up for favorite headline ever:
BOYZILIANS. I, too, am currently going wild right this very second for boyzilians. Please repeat the excellent headline over and over, at least ten times, until you, too, are wild for boyzilians. Now we are all. WILD. For Boyzilians! Stay klassy, Guardian UK!
Swish of the combable tail to Pony Pal Adam!

Your headline choice is a corker, Princess, but the NY and Boston tabloids have done some wonders as well, though more succinct.
I put two of my favorites in all caps, because that's how they should be read.
HEADLESS BODY FOUND IN TOPLESS BAR
MOTHER OF TWO KILLS ONE
To PonyPals everywhere, limit yourself to seven words or less and try to do better. It's more challenging than Sudoku!
if you find any extra boyzilians could i please have one you um, didn't want?
I get past the hairy men dilemma by chasing women. They too can be pretty hairy if left unchecked, but even the butch ones tend to keep their gardens neatly trimmed.
IMO, totally hairless adults are a little too close to resembling children in the "down there" department. Eeuwww.
The Guardian must have come up with that Boyzillian headline using their gay words refridgerator magnets.
Best post title of 2008. Already. :)

What Karen said, and I'll add that the local small-town rag tops the chart for Most Obvious Hedlines:
HUNTERS EAT BREAKFAST
COMMISSIONER IS ELECTED
With gems like that, it's a wonder the Centre Daily Times isn't threatening to outdo the NYT on subscription rates. AND we have Mutts on the comics page!
'Man Explodes on Operating Table"
"Bean Sprouts Cause Cancer"
"Bush Fucked"
Completely (oh so!) off the subject, but the headline of this post reminds me of an episode of the "600 years of this world and the next"-scaling, alt-history novel, The Years of Rice and Salt by Kim Stanley Robinson.
I may be misremembering this vignette, but during the Chinese colonization of the North American west coast there is a major flood in alt-California's Central Valley. A Chinese man and a very pregnant Japanese woman are trying to help each other survive. She gives birth to her baby in a tree, and they then have to defend the baby from all the other animals who are taking refuge in the tree.
Anyway, that's not even close to the best part of the book. Sorry to go all non-sequitur but I'm taking a chance to plug a novel that a few years ago became one of my all time favorite reads.

From the late, great Weekly World News:
TOILET BABY MIRACLE
FAMED PSYCHIC'S HEAD EXPLODES
In my mind, they've never been topped
Weekly World News always had the best headlines:
BIGFOOT STOLE MY WIFE!
And made her pregnant!
