Hangings, Chernobyl, Iraqi war clips, KFC Waffles
Today's Dangling Yet Truly Morbid Fact!
A 15-year-old girl found the body of her 12-year-old brother dangling from his bunk bed after he apparently tried to play a prank on his relatives by pretending to hang himself. Patrick Sanders' body was discovered on June 15, 2005 hanging from a dog leash attached to the bed. Sheriff's deputies and rescue workers were unable to revive him. The boy, who lived in Bloomingdale, about 20 miles northwest of Kalamazoo, was pronounced dead at South Haven Community Hospital.

Okay, what I want to know is - why do they think it was a prank? Smacks of denial to me!

Urban Exploration Link Du Jour!
Wormwood Forest: A Natural History of Chernobyl is a book by Mary Mycio, who documented the "zone of alienation" around Chernobyl (lucky!!!!). Although I haven't purchased the book (yet), this website has an excellent gallery. Some of the shots - such as the "Elephant's Foot" of burned graphite that was left after the fire - are positively creepy!
Thanks to Sandy for the link.

Ghastly!
Skat sends a link to a ghastly collection of Iraqi war clips:
"I received this from a friend who's serving in Iraq. This is a link to the gallery page, where there are several video clips, including executions. I know this is just the list to send this to, but I still have to warn about the graphic nature of the clips. They're disturbing, to say the least..."
Indeed, those of a sensitive nature should definitely avoid the execution footage!
KFC Waffles
2 cups sifted flour
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 Tablespoon cornmeal
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 3/4 cup buttermilk
2 large eggs
Sift all dry ingredients together, then cut in the shortening (as for pie crust). Add the buttermilk and unbeaten eggs, mix until smooth. Preheat the waffle iron. Pour into lightly-greased waffle iron. Yield will vary depending on size of waffle iron.
Yeah, right...
