What's Your Business, Mr. Bones?

A woman was detained at the Munich airport after a scan of her luggage showed a human skull and other bones. But she had a perfectly reasonable explanation, honest!

The 62-year-old woman and her 63-year-old friend were traveling to Italy from Brazil. It turns out that the woman was trying to fulfill the last wish of her brother to be buried in Italy. He had died 11 years previously in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

After she produced the proper papers, the woman and her skeletal carry-on were allowed to continue on to Naples. (source)

Skull a Day ... More common than you think : )

Skull-A-Day This site hosts a treasure trove of online stuff-a-day: jokes, photos, words, hacks, and games, to name a few. Lot's of great imagination and creativity for anyone to be able to pull this site off. There is the orange paper / the skull sparkler, a spooky cloud and a pile of veggies (oh and notice the skull to the left made of rice : ) ). Even simple, everyday plastic items can be transformed into cranial art. Tiptoe through and find your favorite, or suggest one of your own. Before you know it, you'll be looking for them everywhere, and might even think they're cute.

A new twist on "Hangman" ... it's fun

Start the day with a nice holiday-themed game of Hangman, complete with a smart-aleck skeleton on the scaffold. Perhaps after I've had a few cups of coffee I'll have figured out how exactly one would go about executing a skeleton by hanging... I mean, the broken-neck thing would still apply, but there's hardly enough weight to effect a drop such that... hmm?
