HOMELESS MAN: `WILL DO ANTHROPOLOGY FOR FOOD'

HOMELESS MAN: `WILL DO ANTHROPOLOGY FOR FOOD'

SAN DIEGO (Wireless Flash) -- These days, everyone's a specialist -- even the jobless. Case in point: a 62-year-old out-of-work anthropologist who spends his days standing on a San Diego street corner holding a sign that reads "Will Do Anthropology For Food." Michael Burkhart claims he's a trained anthropologist but, other than a brief stint studying gorillas in Nairobi, he admits he's had more luck in construction. A recent stroke left Burkhart unable to stand on ladders, so he's trying to get back into anthropology using his unusual sign. Although he doesn't expect a phone call from Harvard, he says he can use his skills to explain why today's teenage girls have such big feet. If you need an anthropologist pronto, you can contact Burkhart at (619) 248-0633
