allegedly adelaide

Is it just me or is there something inherently funny about this headline from ninemsn.com.au?

"Former Saddam bodyguard 'living in Adelaide' "

Why is he 'living in Adelaide' rather than just living in Adelaide. Is the existence of Adelaide still in question? Or is it questionable that someone actually 'lives' there? Or have we all taken Descartes' evil demon to heart and cannot any longer make any declarative statements about existence?

Adelaide is like puppets, it makes me laugh.

hey if any gay man could actually "marry" it's so totally Elton, he's got the wigs for it...

allegedly adelaide - absolutely pissing myself. it's sheer brilliance. sounds like the title to a sitcom where people just shuffle about rundle mall doing not very much at all.

and it's alliterative too, so it's totally tubular - kind of like "suddenly susan"...
