Broken: Nursing program support
I don't know if this qualifies as a broken link, but it is amusing that you can support the nurses through poor health practices.
I guess what's getting to me more are the incorrect spellings: "amphitheather" and "Krispe Kreme"? (Are they anything like "amphitheater" and "Krispy Kreme"?)
Perhaps you should blur the "for more information" number before we get some people doing research. :).
I never considered buying ONE donut a poor health practice, and I do believe a donut is a far cry from a cigarette. The spelling errors on the sign, however, are classic examples of brokenness.
Thufferin' thuccotash! Head thraight for the ampitheather and buy pasthrieth for fifty thents... fifty thents... fifty thents... fifty thents... fifty thents... get thick and go to the hothpital tho you can thupport the Nurthing Program!
Oh and Elmer, I do beleive you have your Looney Toons crossed. Sylvester said "Sufferin Succotash" and Tweetey had the perpetual lisp.
This relates to an item I saw at work one day: they were having a bake sale (cakes, cookies, etc) to raise funds in support of the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation. The slogan should have read: Eat Cake for Those Who Can't!
I see what all of the $.50 signs mean! Each donut costs fifty cents, but you have to buy at least 18 of them.
Shoot. I've been supporting the nursing program by smoking a pack of Marlboro's a day... Now they tell me it's donuts... Geez... I wish someone would have told me before I got cancer. I could have had heart and weight problems instead... Man. (I gotta go see a doctor...)

Its simple. The donuts were poison so that you go to the hospital and the nurses get paid for keeping from dying from the donut you bought to support the nurses.
