72-year-old Linda Chase says she kept Charles Zigler's body clean and dressed, and talked to him while they watched television.

I read that story back when I was in school.

[Sir Napsalot]

Lol. Maybe she’ll stop afer you show signs of rigor mortis?

/sorry, just joking

[painter]

Yup,that’s the story I remember.

[gzzimlich]

Keeping a corpse sitting around at room temperature is something that no calculating fraudster would endure for the purposes of cashing checks.

Absent other evidence this woman deserves pity rather than vengeance.

[P.O.E.]

Don’t those TV ads tell us if we show signs of rigor mortis for more than four hours we should see a doctor?

Did you see that Will Smith film, “I Am Legend”? The character Will Smith plays does something similar except his was with mannequins.

[cripplecreek]

In “The Stand” Tom Cullen had a whole town full of mannequins.

MOON that spells moon.

Well, you got to admit, a lot of women would call a guy like that, “a real keeper.”

What’s your issue? Faulkner is possibly the greatest of all American writers.

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

There’s no way he didn’t smell. Dead bodies are going to be VERY foul-smelling,especially after the first few days.

There’d be flies and maggots galore!

This woman is beyound sick.

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

I know this is really sick,but the skin might start slipping off.

How can you keep a corpse clean?

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

Cars going around in circles...

What fun!

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

That scene scared the crap out of me.

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

He looked older than 67.

He looked like he was in his 70’s!

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

LOL.

Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah
Someone's layin' dead by the sto - o - o - ove
Someone's in the kitchen with Di - nah
And the smell is really hurtin' my nose.

Faulkner, yea, he was an alcholic who was married mutiple times, constantly had affairs, treated everyone around him like horse piss, oh, and he wrote about necrophilia. What’s not to like?  I tend to judge a man by his inner strength. I don’t care how talented he was, he lacked character.

[Borges]

Then you must hate Beethoven, Wagner, Dostoevsky...
