[78-L] And in other gruesome news..

[Michael Biel]

I can't find it on oy-vey.  I looked up Big Bopper and casket.  What 
other categories would you suggest?  Oh, and be glad they re-buried 
him.  Othewise that museum that displayed the casket might have turned 
it into a Lenin situation.  By the way, that DID happen to Caruso.  I 
just got a copy of Dorothy Caruso's book and she relates that his body 
WAS on display under glass for EIGHT YEARS until she finally got the 
Italians to close the coffin.

As I understand it, ebay doesn't want to be perceived as the world's auctionplace for the macabre, the obscene, and the morbid, and goes to considerable lengths to prevent people from selling body parts, nazi memorabilia, pornography, and all kinds of other unsavory stuff.
