I saw the coolest show on the Travel Channel (or, coulda been Disc., i dunno) about the world's creepiest remains! Kewl! Elephant man remains, a guy who told his doc he only poop'd once a month (they, um, poo-poo'd him) and after he died they did an autopsy and found his lg. colon weighed 50 pounds! It was freaking ENORMOUS! Plus, all the skeletons beneath the streets of Paris (people made decorations out of the skulls and bones-quite nice, actually) the Hand Of Glory (right hand of a hanged criminal) that was supposed to act like "Thing" in the Addamms Family, but, sadly, did not...and all sorts of grave-robbing stuff.

Oh, yeah, this one guy skinned dead people (people they suspected he murdered first--healthy people) then made them into statues...his greatest statue is reputed to be his fiancee riding an equally skinless horse--eww!

Anyway--Tony, you gotta obsession wit death? Huh? Coz I can cure dat.
