Re: On The Cushion/Seiza/Comfy Armchair.

Ugh big chief you meditate cushion squash!

That reminds me of a joke... once there was a doctor who lived near an Indian reservation, and he was visited by a brave who said, big chief no shit. Oh very well, said the doctor, here you have a laxative. Next day the brave came back and again said, big chief no shit. Double the dose, said the doctor as he gave another satchel of powder to the brave. The next day again the brave came back and said, big chief no shit. Four times the dose, that must work, the doctor said to himself. The next day the brave came back and said, big shit no chief!

I thought this an important blessing to share. I hope it doesn't violate any community standards about monkfarts. _/_

Re: Composting of human remains

Remembering science papers that I've read in the past listing the concentrations of heavy metals and salts (not to mention end of life medications) left behind in human remains that were pretty detrimental to plant growth, I decided to google it and was surprised by the diversity of view on the subject. It reads much like the cigarette health controversies of old where many businesses having large financial stakes in this subject were very selective in what science research info they focused on and which they minimized.

Liking the idea of a sky funeral, I would like it to be widely known that I am prepared to just pay to have my body dropped from a very high altitude onto the property of a the last F-wit that has annoyed me.
And if my version of a sky funeral (my apologies to Tibetans) actually caught on, not only might the dispersal of human remains become wider and more judicial but just imagine how many folks might actually get treated more respectfully in their twilight years.
