    A cub reporter covered a story about an attack on a woman by an escapee from a mental asylum. He returned with the story and a headline of "Woman raped, mental patient escapes". The editor told him the headline needed a little punch to grab the reader's attention. After a while he came back with "Fiend F*cks and Flees". The editor told him it was a family paper and they couldn't use a headline like that, go back and try again. Much later he came back with "Nut screws and bolts".

          This reminds me of the “cross-bow” position: Bend her and bolt yourself.

            The original joke is of 2 nurses in the laundry that he rapes as makes his escape. The headline should read: Nuts screws washers and bolts FTFY!
