46. And it has to be done officially. Surely they don't just dig a hole and throw dead people in...

I'm pretty sure things aren't that different in the US than here.

I don't know if this was addressed by any of them because I didn't read the WHOLE thing but ..... I live within 2 miles of a Green Cemetery.  They most certainly DO dig a hole and throw the body in.  No embalming is allowed.  No casket is allowed.  Wrap the body in a sheet or put it in a cardboard box, throw it in the hole, mark it with a GPS, cover it up and walk away.

I'm very surprised these 'progressives', 'green living', 'intellectual', idiots don't know this.

Until proven and personally witnessed in real life, NOTHING on the internet is true. Ever. 

It's even odds that a TLB sock puppet is stirring the conspiracy pot at the DUmp.

You weren't suppose to release the "green" burial plans for the camps yet.

Oh well, the news is out...and BTW, the organic camp gardens are doing great.

132. We're locking this.  Let's put it to rest. Thanks all.

Whoops.  What an unfortunate choice of words...

[The Village Idiot]

Pauper burials do not get funerals. The family, if there are any, won't even know where the ashes are buried.

[Specbid]

Yeah, clearly people who don't march in lockstep with you and talk to dead people are problems...

"talk to dead people"? This thread has been as entertaining as any I can remember, but this quote gives me a great idea. Someone please contact undergroundpanther and ask her to ask her ghost chicken blackie to let us know the truth. If annette has passed(RIP), then ghost chicken blackie would know. That should settle this for all DUmmies.

[miskie]

Even in death, TLB drives the primitives over the edge. - Well done, madam.

172. I spell just fine, and unlike you I don't stalk anyone...

You and honesty really are strangers to each other. And you should take the hint you were given earlier and leave me alone...

176. You neither spell fine, not use grammar properly. You can't construct a sentence well or think through a simple problem or idea.

Along with not being able to put me on ignore, which you told me you did yesterday.

I did not trust it, and this was only a test.

I won't write to you again.

177. Shouldn't you try to make sure you construct sentences properly first?

That post title was like someone farted right in the middle of it and deposited a comma and a not that shouldn't be there. Don't mind me noticing that as my real life job actually involves being able to write and spell at a level where the bar's set much higher than on some internet discussion forum...

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!1111 I'd forgotten that episode! You're right, UP should be able to put the lid on this pronto!

[BlueStateSaint]

Is it me, or is the violently crumbling primitive trying to get a start on the Top Primitives of 2010?

[crockspot]

I bet I could bury Violent Crumble back behind my orchard without any official record, obituary, or funeral. 

[USA4ME]

Hmmm.  The violently crumbling primitive must be a Brit, or Canadian, but more likely a Brit.

She's an Aussie.  She's also a major, big-time Jew hater.

Thanks for the information, sir.

I'll file it away in case I need it for next year's primitives.

[dandi]

The guy who was guidance counselor, an old guy, when franksolich was in high school, a fine outstanding Christian gentleman, an exemplar of rectitude, died a couple of years ago, and had no funeral, no services.

People thought that odd, but didn't know the back-story.

This guy had been an 18-year-old soldier in spring 1945, and one of the first to stumble upon Dachau.  No one knew it was there, or what it was.

After seeing that so many had perished with no commemoration of their lives and deaths, his Christian humility compelled him to wish no such thing for himself either.

Interesting.  He wouldn't have been Pfc John Degro, would he?

Here is an interesting timeline and photographic history of the liberation of Dachau.

Thought you all would find this interesting.

732. I AM ANNETTE APPOLLO'S OLDER SISTER (69 YEARS OLD)
   
FYI, Annette Appollo committed suicide (by prescription drug overdose) on 12/23/09. She was going to be evicted from her apt. the next day for non-payment of rent. Her parents and I constituted her immediate family. Dad was a postal worker; mom was a dress factory machine operator. They saved every cent they could toward our education. I did not want to go to college (to their disappointment; every WWII era parent dreamed their kids would go to college). Instead I went to business school. Annette, though later found to be mentally fragile, was very intelligent, valedictorian of her high school class (albeit a class of only 95) and earning a fully paid scholastic scholarship to Temple Univ., Phila. where she first became exposed to the lifestyles of the 'rich and famous'. She mingled with kids from wealthy backgrounds and began to emulate them, grades slipped, she was thrown out. After two more colleges (paid for with my parents' hard-earned money), they finally got her through an undergrad degree. She married one of her professors, Dr. Lawrence Porter (20+ years older than she), moved to Wash., DC, was accepted into the law school of Catholic Univ. (again, parents' money). Larry accepted a job with Livermore Labs, Walnut Creek, Calif. She didn't like Calif., cooked up the story that he was cheating on her and returned home. Parents paid for divorce (marriage lasted two or three years). Parents then subsidized her until approximately 1980 (meanwhile I and my husband were being transferred all over the country and the world by his employer (Haliburton, the name you folks love to hate). Finally I learned in late 1981 that she had abandoned them and, after dad called on a local friend's son who was a detective in the Wash., DC area to check her apt. and, upon her learning of this, dad receiving a letter from her lawyer threatening a lawsuit for harrassment if he continued to try to contact her, I took over looking after them, making the trip cross country on holidays, seeing that they were OK, etc. In 1991 we left Chicago and returned to the old homestead, at my dad's request, because he'd been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and dementia simultaneously. He died in 1995, mother died in 1998. Annette monitored all of this through relatives (who I never knew), but her lawyer did call one day and ask how my dad was....dad had died the day before. She was a very emotionally disturbed individual. Combine that feature with being a grifter (to the best of our knowledge she never worked a day in her life as evidenced by the remarks of her apt. bldg. mgr. who found her body (three days after she committed suicide) and her will next to her naming him executor of her 'estate'. He said she had $400 in her checking account and, in going through her records, had never contributed one cent to Soc. Security.
To those who loved her, I thank you because I've never known anyone who did, except my parents. To those to whom she was mean and rude, I apologize. We both came from a wonderful and caring family...a family that gave her everything, but when they refused to continue to pay her way at age 35, she abandoned them. She always wanted to be rich and famous, made up stories about being rich and famous, really did get a book published but it didn't sell at all. The apt. mgr. said there was a recently received letter from her publisher on her desk indicating that she'd submitted a manuscript that she hoped would be published. It was a turn-down letter, stating that the manuscript seemed to be a 'memoir, and a bad one at that'. As always, it was all about Annette.

740. Annette Appollo
   
No, not painful at all. She was a diagnosed sociopath and manic depressive, and she's finally out of her misery. She had no contact with her immediate family (me, mom, dad) for 35 years, and when dad did attempt to reconcile, she had her atty. send him a letter threatening to sue him for harassment. My parents (both dead now) were not very sophisticated people and were easily frightened by things like threatening letters from lawyers. It was a cruel thing to do, but for as charming and delightful and she could be, she could be much more cruel.

745. Here's how.
   
My only cousin Googled her name and emailed me. I decided to dispel any myths and replace them with facts. My cousin, my husband and I are the only ones still alive who can do so.

Someone's bitter...

Interesting if true, more interesting if its not.

Has Frank seen this yet?

Wasn't this covered some time ago here?

Yup.  I can't remember which thread, but I recall seeing that.

[Karin]

If we go with categories for the 2010 awards, Violet would rank as "Nastiest in the DUmp."  Holy shit!

[Chris]

Yes, it was covered in one of the other (many) TLB threads.

[Aaron Burr]

Hmmm. These people aren't agitated enough. Someone should go over there and point out that the post written by the "sister" was really written by Tangarine LaBamba. I don't know if it's true or not, and don't really care, but I can't stand to see a crisis like this go to waste.

I'm sure Tangarine LaBamba would have wanted it that way.
