I thought you were advocating not wearing underwear, either! That's a little too... slutty? forward?

If he discovers that you’re not wearing underwear, it’s too late.

I think I will go with: nice black pants and rather low-cut, clingy mauve top.

That says: I’ll make out with you on the couch, but I’m not staying. Very good.

Mummified body found in front of TV

CINCINNATI, Ohio (AP) -- The mummified body of a woman who didn't want to be buried was found in a chair in front of her television set 2 1/2 years after her death, authorities said.

Johannas Pope had told her live-in caregiver that she didn't want to be buried and planned on returning after she died, Hamilton County Coroner O'Dell Owens said Monday.

Pope died in August 2003 at age 61. Her body was found last week in the upstairs of her home on a quiet street.

Some family members continued to live downstairs, authorities said. No one answered the doorbell at Pope's home Monday afternoon.

It could take weeks to determine Pope's cause of death because little organ tissue was available for testing, Owens said.

An air conditioner had been left running upstairs, and that allowed the body to slowly mummify, he said. The machine apparently stopped working about a month ago, and the body began to smell.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

tommyrot, have you been on Visa from your end? Can't you stop payment? That would hustle the Comcast butts, I bet.

Congrats to Dana on her raise and to Flea on her new armadillo.

I am working on a stupid committee document! I hate it. And some fucker keeps accidentally turning off the lights.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

How did the body get mummified? And I am assuming that would reduce the smell, so that her relatives living downstairs weren't driven out of the house.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

tommyrot, have you been on Visa from your end? Can't you stop payment?

Well, I've been talking to my bank, as I made the charge to my visa debit card. Apparantly there's no such thing as a "stop payment" on a credit card charge.

Maybe there's a Visa number I can call. Also, I can try the Comcast "billing team."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Expensive utility bills.

Interesting that people didn't mind the corpse upstairs.

Hell yes to trying every avenue. Comcast's especially.
