the funeral director said they'll notify the family to assure them their loved one wasn't harmed.

ROFL, he was cremated, not harmed in any way though.

I'm actually amazed that with all the chemicals we consume throughout our lives that we are not classified as hazardous waste when we finally pass on.

Don't be talking trash about my wife's cooking.

Think about all the critters that have died over the millions of years and the chemicals they have eaten. Yeah, it's a damn good thing it's not hazardous waste or the entire world would be damn SUPERFUND site.

Okay, I think I'm going to put off lunch until later than usual, today.

Just don't get a fatty prime rib or hamburger and you should be good. Oh yeah, stay away from Taco Bell, too, you never know WHAT that meat is.

Dinosaurs must have eaten old tires, because they turned into oil.

Wow, 600lbs. I wonder why he died? BTW - the story reminded me of the movie The Alamo when Davy Crocket describes eating potatoes from the celler of a burned house, cooked from the grease of Indians they trapped inside. Ummm... taters...

I thought maybe Teddy Kennedy died.

I discovered that the first - and only - time I ever went to a Taco Bell! That was literally a once in a lifetime experience. I don't ever need a second.

You're not supposed to press down with a spatula - that lets all the juices out!

All I do is feel sorry for those poor large folks. I'm sorry our food industry has created man made food to such an extent causing addictions to food as nicotine is to smokers. Even these so called diet sodas with aspartame has caused addictions and creating even more fat people. Research is now proving this. ;o(

Preservative foods [man made foods] were innocently created for shelf life...it has turned into one ugly monster.

Ummmm, actually an embalmed body is classified as hazardous. Formaldehyde from buried bodies has been known to contaminate the ground water...

Don't be surprised to find habeneros seeds in your breakfast cereal after a remark like that.

LOL I will not tell my wife about that nasty trick! I think she prefers to give me arsenic mixed in with cinnamon.

See, you have to go low and slow in order to avoid these grease fires. Sorta like roasting a duck...
