• Commented on Visualizing the decline of empires
  Nifty little video, would have been cooler with a soundtrack or commentary and if it didn't move at such a glacial pace - especially while waiting for 20 years to tick by when nothing happens. Would also be interesting to...
• Commented on Cartoon review of documentary about show posters, "Died Young, Stayed Pretty"
  AHHHH! The 'slideshow' feature makes the panels go by way too fast and I wasn't able to get it to stop until I closed the tab. Make sure you click the double-arrow instead of the single arrow if you're trying...
• Commented on Blog about bad and odd taxidermy
  It's interesting enough, but very repetitive - I've had my fill of fiji mermaids and two-faced kittens. There's also a lot of the crocheted-around animals, the ones with human faces (Supremely Creepy), and TONS of the work of Walter Potter...
• Commented on What is the meaning of this unusual tombstone?
  Incredibly fascinating. I can't think of anything much more morbid than designing my own tombstone. Might he be terminally ill? Or just eccentric? The photos on Findagrave have the death date of Lady Gwinavier, while the photo in the post...

• Commented on Michael Jackson to be plastinated?
  Bubbles is alive. Also, skinless Jacko will haunt my nightmares forever more. A skinless chimp next to a skinless person, however, would be pretty cool. I saw the BODIES exhibition when it was traveling but that was only people. It...
