A guy buys the morning newspaper every day from a newsstand. Every day he scans the front page, grumbles, then throws the paper away in disgust.

After a while, the news agent asks the guy why he keeps throwing the paper away after only reading the front page.

“I’m looking for someone in the obituaries,” the guy replies.

“But, sir,” says the news agent, “the obituaries are on page 30.”

“When the son of a bitch I’m looking for dies,” answers the guy, “he’ll be on the front page.”
