The Best Oracle Headline You'll See All Year

October 9th, 2008 by The Oracle Alchemist

For those of you who know me, you know that I like to keep an air of professionalism both in my work and in my online communications. However, this was just too good to pass up…The Register has given us the best double entendre I’ve ever seen in an Oracle related article:

Actual Headline: Oracle Shareholders Choke On Ellison’s Package

Carry on.

UPDATE: Thanks to Bob Rhubart for pointing out the subtitle!
