I know some people I'd like to normothermic regionally perfute.

"Watch it, mister. If you don't cease and desist from liberal propaganda we'll have ta normothermically perfute ya!"

Hey! Nice ring to it.

#7 Why I never sign organ donation documents.

That's most prudent, 3dc. I read a short story where the guy signed off his body in a silly moment. He has to lie there in an undead state feeling everything while the cosmic lawyers and sheriffs hash out where he's going. He wants to scream at them to get it on with and must endure being dissected and harvested while they're such bureaucrats about it. While the doctors rip out everything one by one. It was 'orrible.

#8 What's also interesting is who pays for the surgery to remove the organs.
Guess. (Donor, it's their surgery.)
