?????

Please to be finding me a headline more incomprehensible than this:

"Roar will be the fine young cannibals of Queensland market, says Farina."

I've read this about a dozen times, and the only words I'm sure about are "will," "the," "of," and "says." And I'm not completely sure about that last one.

This is one of those headlines where it's much more fun to make up your own story; the facts of the facts could never live up to such a sublimely ludicrous name. Is "Roar" an up-and-coming new band in the mold of Fine Young Cannibals? Is "Farina" some kind of mystic? Who knows?
