I overheard someone say I could almost
hear Brahms turning in his grave with this
performance.
Well, there's an idea. Just attach a shaft
between a generator and the soles of the
shoes of every buried person (cremations
are no good, for obvious reasons) through
a hole in the casket and
annoy the hell out
of them, may God rest their souls (and not
their soles!)
Competitions could be organised.
In annoy-the-dead-competitions, scores
are based upon the number of megawatts
generated during a certain timespan.
Who can perform the worst redition of
"New York New York" or It's all right
Mama, demonstrate how God DOES play
dice (and a great game of Black Jack at
that). And just a few dead popes should be
able to meet the demand of the chistmas
light decorations of an average mall.
The possibilities are endless...

do people wear shoes when they get buried? that seems strange to me, in a similar way to how i don't like to wear shoes in bed. |
|
|
Maybe something to do with the Egyptian/other beliefs that the dead need their actual stuff for the next life? ...and we've just kept with tradition? |
|

I've also thought I would want to be curled up comfy on my side instead of stiffly faced-up. |

|
Do they continue to turn in their graves after the corpse has decomposed? |
|
|
Oh, silly me, how could it compost at all if it didn't turn? |
