'Lessons'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
If a human body has been in the coffin, the family got charged for it. So the funeral home can't resell it to the public for funerary purposes, but can sell it to the furniture manufacturer. Aren't they getting paid for a piece of equipment twice?
Regardless of cool they look, I'd want to know the provenance behind the piece and whether some grieving family got billed for the coffin before I bought it.
Tommyrot, I'm x-posting that in Bitches so Jilli sees it!

Cool. I was hoping she'd see it here, but that's better.

I have started up on fitday again. Have we discussed here that there is an entry for "milk, human"? - ummmmmm
so far I am fat and carb heavy. I am hoping to get a handle on what I eat for a week or two in order to make some adjustments (slightly high cholesterol at last Dr. appt, and in a swimsuit last Fri = time to pay attention more).
in case you're fitdaying your infant's diet?
I'm hoping.
Thanks, megan!
Another health benefit of eating dark chocolate.
Record-breaking Mentos and coke explosions
Around 1,500 students kitted out in waterproof ponchos discovered exactly what happens when you drop a mint sweet into a bottle of Coca Cola, in an attempt to break a world record.
The pictures are just surreal - you've got everyone in blue ponchos, with rows and rows of Coke bottles spewing Coke into the air....
