Just goes to show the freak show is not dead !

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

Am I the only one that noticed the pig head in the Contraband Room? I wonder what they do with all that food!! -_- What really made me go huh? is the Playboy in braille. Forget just reading about or seeing 'em legs, now you can feel 'em. (no insults intended, i'm a feminist male)

Question the question. Answer the question. Question the answer...

I wish I knew what I was gonna say :oP

As for the dead body research, the man who started it is Dr. Bill Bass.  I have heard him lecture twice and he is both funny and very informing.  His research has benefited police and others around the world. Yes, strange but excellent research.  He is now retired but not to the "body farm".
