The dead don't care! I love the idea of green burial in fact...<BR/><BR/>...I actually believe feeding our dead to sharks makes more sense that burying them. I guess we don't want sharks to get too obese or lazy. I mean sharks hanging around the "meat boat" would be kind of gross. Also they might try for fresher product than the recent dead. But hey, I would rather feed sharks that take prime land up for eons.isee3dtoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769549614987317740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-10517808295378962312008-09-03T08:05:00.000-07:002008-09-03T08:05:00.000-07:00The Reaper and the Roadrunner.

If it is just the roadrunner explaining to the reaper that a saber-tooth tiger fang is needed for starters. Or, I could see the reaper at a hardware store asking for a new fang, or trying to "shop-lift" a fang from the Smithsonian. Too many possibilities.<BR/><BR/>Great history lesson on this one.isee3dtoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769549614987317740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-42132677004271605982008-09-03T07:10:00.000-07:002008-09-03T07:10:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03467020194112923397noreply@blogger.com
