Possible drinking problem? (not to mention other issues!)
StarTribune.com - Woman accused of stealing dead boyfriend's remains, beer "An exhumation revealed Hendrickson's cremated remains were missing from Cambria Cemetery in Columbia County. Beer and cigarettes that were buried with him were also missing. Sheriff's deputies investigated and were led to Stolzmann. Detectives searched her home and found her hiding in the shower. The remains, located in her garage, had "identifiable things to make us believe they're (Hendrickson's),'' Smith said. Some of Hendrickson's memorabilia was also recovered, but Smith believes Stolzmann drank the beer buried with the remains."
As soon as I read this I just started picturing this woman like the character in "Nekromantik 2", huddling in her shower with a beer in her hand, a cigarette hanging out of her mouth, and a petrified penis on a plate covered in plastic wrap, as police bang on her door and the scene cuts to images of her playing an oddly romantic tune on a piano.
(Note: I saw the movie, "Nekromantik 2" numerous times back in 1995 when I had a roommate who was very keen on the movie, and considered it to be, in a way, a touching romantic comedy. That was, at least partly, the filmmaker's goal. And John Waters is rumoured to have agreed with that take. After about the 5th viewing, one can almost appreciate that perspective, if one doesn't pay particular attention to the rotting aspect. I have never seen the original film, except for the last scene, which was included in the sequel as a flashback, and which was quite gruesome.) (link via A Welsh View)

The point to remember, then, is that written words have permanency, and thoughts carelessly put on paper can, when not destroyed by accident, exist for hundreds of years.
