The article I read says the Muslims fear retaliation and so are not taking Tamerlan. (click)So right now he is at a non-muslim funeral parlor outside of Boston, here. (I could throw a rock and hit it, as the saying goes, and I'd like to). But they still haven't found a cemetery that will take him. ..Seems to me they should just burn him like trash and throw away the ashes. Word is if they don't find somewhere soon, the state will step in.

Word is if they don't find somewhere soon, the state will step in. I can understand the reluctance of anyone or a site to take the remains. So, I quite like Tempus' idea of using the corpse as fish food. It's a win-win situation; little energy needed for cremation, & no wasting oxygen doing so either . It's the ultimate in recycling, really...Oh, and no grave to become a shrine to those who might be inspired by the scrote either. Job done.

Using a non-Muslim funeral parlor wouldn't surprise me. Here, things like that usually hinge on whoever needs the money most.

The nice warm weather has turned very chilly, here, too. Rain and falling temperatures.
Off with the air conditioner, on with the heat!

Yesterday was Free Comic Book Day. Mr. Beez and I visited a nearby comic book store and had a blast. We also had a baby shower to attend. My friend loved all that I bought for her little boy! We drove around today and goofed off. I go back to work tomorrow. That makes me sad. This weather has gone batty. It surely is a nice Winter we're having this Spring!

Hey Beez. Sounds like you had a good day.
Last time you were here, you were going to attend a UU church service. Did you? If so, how did you like it and what were your impressions?
(((hugs))) Beth

Each time I tried, I either overslept or someone had plans. This weekend I shall. Mr. Beez can go play his games without me. I really do need to do this since I still have a lot of issues.

It's the same on news sites. Except for the story above the fold, Drudge is worthless on holiday weekends. Ditto some of the others. The worker bees are off .. little gets done.
Good morning mouse, Mark, Who, Hunny ... everyone. I work from home today but it's still work ... time consuming and (in this case) rather tedious.
Hope everyone has a good'un.
