Finding ~150 barrels of toxic waste illegally dumped in the Packard Plant in Detroit.
I stayed there too long without a respirator.
I had a bad headache and felt spacey for the rest of the day. I also lost about 70% of my sense of smell permanently.

That was your penance for disturbing the ol' factory.

The Packard Plant could have been on fire at the time, which probably contributed.

Looks like it. Have a lock on the wall that secures the ladder and it provides some level of access control too.

So if you're stuck on the roof and the building is on fire you need some kind person to go fetch the keys before you can get down? Or would you only be on the roof if you'd climbed up that ladder to start?

Have some Finnish truckfuckling accident involving a boom lift. The lift was being loaded on the truck when the truck started rolling downhill, with the operator in the lift's basket. He jumped down onto the asphalt from 1 metre and wasn't badly hurt. The lamp post and tree that got on the truck's way got hurt more, though, before it jack knifed.





Could have been a lot worse.

I'm going the medical donation route, to the university hospital that performed my life-saving surgery.

While I'd like to believe that my obese carcass will be used to teach fledging physicians, I really do not care.

What is appealing is that the entire donation process costs something like $500, imcluding the death certificate & transport. My mom's second husband went that routre, and my mom wil, as well.

Is her first husband living off of all the donated organs?

No one's mentioned it yet, so I will. Cremation isn't very good for the environment, and unless you're OK with giving nature a gently caress you as your last possible act, there's always Aquamation! Instead of burning your fat ugly sack of meat, stick it in a pressure cooker full of lye! It takes about 6 hours and turns you into an alkaline green-brown liquid with bones so brittle they can be crushed by hand. The liquid can then just be flushed into the sewer system, or you could use it as fertilizer. Uses about a quarter of the energy of a cremation.
It's not legal everywhere, though. There are an increasing number of companies that offer it as an alternative to pet cremation.
