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?
I don't think the coffins are actually used - just "demo" models that are slightly imperfect or something. The quote is confusing - I think the stuff about "biohazard" is kinda' a joke. Unless the coffins
are
actually used?
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.
Vanity post: so this weekend, I was in the Castro, and decided to do this.
When I first saw the thing about coffin couches, I thought "Cool!" but the picture kinda makes me... uncomfortable? I dunno.
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?
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....
Hey, there was a nursing mother on this season's Top Model who drank some of the milk she was pumping -- but probably not enough to record.....
Today is going by too slowly.
