Oooh ooh ooh! Is it a reaaaaaaaaal skull?????

[shacker]

Yup, and misc bones. Old ones. From Harvard. Old Harvard.

I've often thought that having a skull would be a neat thing. I don't know where I'd put it. Somewhere highly visible - a reminder of one's mortality. It's easy to forget that in the day to day and just spend a lot of time burning time.

To date, I've never found a place to get a skull. And I've been unsure of the legality. I also don't know if I'd be able to sleep with it there, or to ever stop being bothered by the question of where it came from, who it was, and whether they'd mind sitting and watching me all the time.

If there is indeed an afterlife, and someone hung my human remains in their living room above their mantle piece I would come back and give them a serious ass whooping.

Christian Afterlife: come back as a wraith, give them a heartattack.
Hindu Afterlife: come back, grow up to teenage years, beat them in a dark ally.
Buddist Afterlife: I have no idea, but I'd do something.

If I had 2400 EURs I would really think about getting a 17 inch iMac or a PowerMac (if they wouldn't be so loud). I love Jaguar and sadly long for doing more on the iBook but sometimes I want the big screen and real keyboard and ... damn... :)

Temptations, difficult balances... you can always opt to not eat for a while ;)

Unfortunately, these aren't ours to keep - have to set up the landwater offices. So this stack of Apple hardware sits here in boxes... tempting me.

sorry - i'm *NOT* trading my ABS for a skull. =;

Too late, you already did. Or didn't you notice that your connection was a bit musty tonight?
