Where’s the Glove?

Apologies to those expecting headlines that actually have descriptions of posts to follow, but some puns are too good to pass up. Like the one above. See, Jennifer Gooch, a grad student at Carnegie Mellon School of Art, has started a Web site called One Cold Hand? According to this not-terribly-dated AP story, Gooch was saddened by the number of unmatched gloves she saw on the streets of Pittsburgh. So she did something about it, putting the Web site up like fliers on telephone posts of found kittens. The site’s been live for about three weeks and hadn’t match a glove yet, but Gooch said that’s okay:

“It’s kind of whimsical and bittersweet,” Gooch said. “It makes you feel there’s this opportunity for benevolence.”

For whatever reason, I like the sound of that.

    I can’t believe you passed on the opportunity to title this post “Smell the Glove.”

    Really, people. I mean, what’s wrong with bein’ sexy…?

    I like the sound of “opportunity for benevolence,” myself. Too bad that sort of ideal isn’t encouraged somehow at a corporate level…

    No glove, no love.

    Duh.
