    NEWSFLASH:

    SAN FRANCISCO MAN BECOMES FIRST AMERICAN TO GRASP IRONY

    SAN FRANCISCO - The UK paper The Daily Telegraph spoke to Jay Fullmer, 38,
    who became the first American to come to grips with the concept of irony, yesterday.

    "It was weird," Fullmer said, "I was in London and, like, talking to this guy and it was raining and stuff and he said, like, great weather, or something like that."

    Said Fullmer: "And I thought - wait a
    minute, it's like, no way is it great weather."
    Fullmer soon realised that the other man's 'mistake' was deliberate. "This guy was pretty cool about it," Fullmer said.

    Fullmer, who is 39 next month and married with two children, aged 8 and 3, planned to use irony himself in future. "I'm like saying it all the time."
    he said. "Last weekend I was, like, grilling steaks and I, like, burned the crap out of them and I said 'great weather'."
