lastorders 15 Posted October 2, 2011 Nearly... Brings tears to the eyes. From article "I went downstairs and got a Stanley knife out of my toolbox and just started hacking away. The pain was unbelievable. "It only took a couple of minutes of cutting before I quickly sobered up..." As a member of the council. Is he/she sort of recommending to hack away at your bell end as a last ditch attempt to sober up? "Uh oh... it's 5am... I've sunk 2 bottles of wine and some chasers...work in 2 hours... how shall I sober up in time?....hmmmm" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Davey Jones' Locker 1,324 Posted November 7, 2011 Russian man dressed skeletons as dolls A Russian man arrested on suspicion of stealing 29 skeletons from a local cemetery dressed them up as giant dolls in fancy dress to decorate his apartment, an official said. Police have arrested Anatoly Moskvin from the central city of Nizhny Novgorod, who reportedly has a PhD and was known locally for his fascination with cemeteries. "Twenty-eight human-size dolls were found in the 45-year-old Nizhny Novgorod resident's apartment," the spokeswoman of the region's interior ministry Svetlana Kovylina said in a video clip on the ministry's website. "He made them himself using clothing and mummified human remains stolen from cemeteries. "Another body was found in his garage." The shaky police footage shows a small apartment crammed with books and heaps of colourful fabric, with bodies positioned in casual poses among cheap furnishings and oriental rugs. Police released the video after reporting last Thursday having found 20 skeletons in the man's flat, but delayed the gruesome details until after the public holiday on Friday for Russia's Day of National Unity. Moskvin, pictured with greying hair and beard and wearing a brown winter coat, is "known in some research circles as a specialist in cemeteries," said the spokeswoman. A native of the Volga river city and author of several books about cemeteries, Moskvin now faces up to three months in prison. In an interview to a local journalist several years ago he said he became interested in cemeteries while still a teenage troublemaker, after accidentally witnessing an unusual burial organised by a member of a sect. "Since then, I am pulled to cemeteries as if by a magnet," he said in the interview, published by journalist Tatiana Kokina-Slavina on her website.

maryportfuncity 10,639 Posted January 11, 2012 We don't have an interesting way to not die thread so I thought I'd mention a story in today's soaraway Sun, a woman coughed up her - apparently - fatal tumour.

Whitehouse 872 Posted January 13, 2012 http://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2012/01/12/man-dies-after-getting-caught-in-wood-chipper/ NEVADA CITY (CBS13) – A man died Thursday morning after getting caught in a wood chipper while trimming trees at a home outside of Nevada City, according to the Nevada County Sheriff’s Department. Martin Lara Urena The accident happened around 8 a.m. at a home on Indian Shack Road. The victim, identified as Martin Lara, 50 of Applegate, was part of crew using a large, industrial wood chipper. Co-workers heard the man scream but could not help him in time. According to the sheriff’s office, Lara somehow became entangled in a rope that was tied around a bundle of wood and was being pulled by the chipper. He was decapitated apparently either by the rope, clothing or brush and his body was pulled into the cone of the wood chipper but didn’t go all the way in before a co-worker pulled the lever. “It was definitely a freak accident,” said sheriff’s Sgt. Hap Penaluna. The company, Bushwackers, had been hired by the homeowner to clear brush. “I don’t know how that could have happened,” said Jim Norman, owner of Trees Unlimited, who said he planned to talk to his 10 employees in the wake of the accident. “It brings tears to my eyes.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He died a most unusual martyr's death. His doctor prescribed Sexual Intercourse as a cure for his Gallstones, from which von Jungingen was suffering at the time. The chaste knight refused to comply, and suffered the consequences." Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konrad_von_Jungingen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
