Be Careful Of Cryognics
I hope this does not offend anyone but I find this to be so hilarious that I have to share it here.
You all know about Cryogenics - right? Where they freeze the body so that a person can come back to life some day - if and when they figure out how to bring someone back - that is.
It appears that they haven't thought the process completely through - as yet.
Ted Williams decided to have only his head frozen when he died (it's cheaper that way. How or where they are going to reattach his head is something that has not been addressed - as yet.
According to a book written by a former employee of these Cryogenic people - this is what happened to Ted's head. The following is from an interview of the author:
*********************
"So it was quite common for them to decapitate the corpses? "Yes, that's correct," Johnson confirmed. Saying, "I saw his (Williams') head," Johnson asserted that, "What happens is they had had his head in one -- looked like a freezer chest ... and it was malfunctioning, there were some issues. So they wanted to move his head into another vessel to lower the temperature of his head down it minus 321 Fahrenheit, so they went to put his head in that vessel. Obviously, the head's round, it's not gonna sit upright. "So, they got a tuna fish can, and they put it in the bottom of that vessel. They set the head on top of the can and then filled the vessel with liquid nitrogen. Well, obviously, after two or three days of being in that state, when they pull you out, that can is stuck to the top of the head and in Williams' case, that's exactly what happened. "They pulled him out, the tuna can was stuck on the top of his head, a technician grabbed a monkey wrench, took a swing at the can, missed it, missed the can, hit the head, drew back again, (took) a second swing, hit the can, sent it flying across the room."

If I'm going to turn my body over to someone to freeze some day - it's not going to be with those guys.
Every time I read that it sends me into gales of laughter.....
