Birds in Tree

[Chum]

hamster's need order and control too. Gerbils are useful, ask any Hollywood primadonna.

Did I ever tell you about my cemetary gig?

50-yr old liveoaks, some 150. The church sold plots right up under them, four graves dug up to a trunk, no more roots which means no more oak - she fell over. They wanted to keep it, so I propped 'er up and guywired to four augered-in posts, which crunched into stuff while I twisted them in (240 horsepower diesel pole setter), about seven feet under and good counter angles for proper physics. Tree surviving with careful hydro-science, the graves have since collapsed a couple feet down from grade since.

When the rapture comes and these corpses try to crawl out to take over the world? They'll have to blame their serious physical handicaps on one of God's real estate agents. They claim to have sold - and will develop every square inch of this 90 acres.

Birds can't pilot planes into buildings, but crapping on us is one terror plot I can certainly understand, and everyday it's becoming more clear about the last few.

churches sell crz plots, so does the us gummint, re the page 8 story here: http://www.tcia.org/PDFs/TCI_Mag_June_07.pdf

The supervisor told me that very few vets get cremated which takes a small shallow hole, so most burials call for a backhoe and a deep root feeding with formaldehyde.

dam dum tradition if you ask me.

what's this got to do with birds?

Soil(ent) Green.

Makes more sense the more space we ruin.

On the bird turd thing, just that it's funny someone who's in charge of their world (ie: Mercedes convertible, 1/2 million$ condo, Gucci shoes, etc.) cruises down Rodeo Drive and a pigeon drops a hot one on their lapel. Then who "won?" this game of dominance?

 

[Chum]

Deep root feeding w/ formaldehyde.

Have to remember that one. I'll use it to blame the next mortality at the cemetary.

[/ QUOTE ]I wonder how fast it is released over time? Depends on the buffering and encapsulization I guess...

 

[Chum]

Inside an air-tight coffin, often metal, then inside an airtight seal on a concrete cript?

I suspect that sort of senseless preservation is rooted in something "religious".

If I go easy and my remains are viable, stick an acorn under my tongue and plant me shallow. Bring me to the party first.

[/ QUOTE ] You got it, dude. We'll toast you and then plant you, like squanto's fish.

 

[Chum]

We should plan for something. I don't what they might've told you but I can't be used as a donor - too toxic and apparently damaged goods as well.

The oak that might grow would probably have some interesting mutations, but hey...I'm all for recycling.
