Paying Homage to a Human Popsicle?
Ah, Orange County. The land of sun, beaches, traffic, and smog. But also a place where a person can spend their life in peace with their love one by their side. Well, um, in this case is was in a barrel and it was full of dry ice.According to the OC Register (via Dvorak.org/blog) (I also have my qualms with OC’s own Dinosaur Blog) Stephen David Royds was spending his time with his wife, in a Tupperware container, filled with dry ice, for “religious reasons.”Um, yea right? Mind you this was in a room at the Fairmont in Newport Beach. That is positively a place where you would not expect something like this to happen. I know the saying “my body is my temple,” but a “frozen body as a temple” might be taking this a little too far.
The LA Times reports it’s been a long time since the person in the container died (possibly May 2007) and they also report that they don’t think it was homicide.
Bunch a nut-biscuit-crazy mo-fos.
