Headline of the Day!


http://abclocal.go.com/wpvi/story?section=bizarre&id=3182960

JUNEAU, AK-June 22, 2005 - A homeless shelter here is looking for donations – as long as there is no bear involved.

The Glory Hole shelter has stopped serving donated bear meat after learning the state prohibits nonprofit groups from accepting wild game meats such as bear, fox and walrus.
"We didn't know that it is illegal," said Jetta Whittaker, executive director of the shelter.

For years, the Glory Hole accepted bear meat to supplement its meals for the homeless. The meat went into many recipes, including burgers, casseroles and spaghetti

(doodle cancels trip to AK.)

Who would name a homeless shelter The Glory Hole? Seriously!

Tha phrase "Glory Hole" is originaly a term related to mining - which makes sense in Alaska.

Still, you know the headline writer knew what he was doing!

Still, the homeless shelter cant be that old...I'm sure the slang term was in full use by that time.

I actually like it, tho a bit misleading :)

I kept waiting for the punch line.

But I tell ya... Whoever wrote that "head"-line is in on it.

They would not have said "No More Bear Meat IN the Glory Hole" otherwise. It would have been "AT" the Glory Hole.

You wouldn't say "No More French Fries IN McDonald's," it would be "No More French Fries At McDonald's."

These writers knew what they were doing. And what it meant.

Which makes it even funnier.
