I hope you never have to do it Mr. Bean...not only really gross...its sad too..when you go thru the personal effects to catalog them and come across photos of kids and wives. Lets you know that these "pieces of meat" were once living breathing loving humans.

One thing though. The sight of "Death" doesn't really bother me anymore, I don't know if thats a good thing or bad thing.

I would find that a bad thing. I don't like the idea of being desensitized to death...esp if a loved one dies...it may not mean as much, if anything.

Canada Customs job I had one summer. I was surrounded by religious fundies so I didn't really talk to anyone since every single conversation ends up with them preaching the joys of the bible to me. I was called a devil worshipper among other things for listening to Ozzy and Black Sabbath. The work was mostly boring, open and check 150 parcels a day in an 8 hour shift to meet quota, and go screen suspicious videotapes for illegal content. The videotape screening was fun on some days when there was good porn on them, but most of the time the tapes contained stuff that's far more sickening than RayCav's snuff/pornfic. Imagine watching a movie of RayCav's pornfic everyday, now imagine having to watch about 5-10 such movies and worse every day.

Say, do you want it to be a threesome with your wife? Or a foursome with your wife and sister-in-law? I'm up for either. :P

No..no..you've understood me wrong. My mother passed away on 25th of October and I morn her passing, however the actual physical pressence of death.. i.e. body, smell, blood, etc. doesn't bother me anymore. That is what bothers me emotionaly.

edit... sorry this got off topic... stoping now

Now last summer but the summer before that work at the tire shop. It seemed that a lot of semi-tires and trackter tires were breaking and I, being the only one who couldn't go on town runs, had to do the majority... even got split rims, you people don't know hard work until you have to break apart a solid ring, rusty split rim without a machine... of course the same goes for 100+lbs semi-tires and 200+lbs trackter tires (had to load those onto the back of peoples trucks with our car lift...)
