    Encore performance:

    ♫ When you like how you feel with a tropical eel, ♫

    ♫ That’s a moray! ♫

    Since the Earth’s core rotates faster than the mantle, you can start digging from a lot of places and end up in China if you time it correctly.

    Sometimes an eel is just an eel.

    Wouldn’t it be cheaper and better to cremate the unclaimed bodies and burry the urns instead of burring coffins?

    Ogden Nash :

    “I don’t mind eels

    Except as meals

    And the way they feels"

    [I wonder if Nash ever tasted Unagi ?

    I love it grilled or in sushi preparations.]

    Could some of those bodies be victims of the Long Island serial killer?

    Many of those in Hart Island are Covid-19 victims… so the story is of creepy actuality.

    While you’re down there in that ditch, take look and see if you can find Jimmy Hoffa.

    I recall watching a “science fiction” movie in which China invaded the United States via a massive tunnel through our Earth. Nice to know the front line won’t begin here. Anyone recall the name of the movie?

    Eels? There’s something very Freudian about that.

    One of the tragedies of Hart Island is that stillborn and premies who didn’t make it were buried there without their parents being told where they are. There are also Immigrants who died, and whose families were not told until recently. Until CV-19 hit, once a month families could apply to visit the island to try to visit the “resting place” of their loved ones. There is a petition to turn the whole island into a public park.

    I was remembering a Heart Island in the St. Lawrence river/Seaway. The home of Bolt Castle. Interesting story there!

    The “Web of Life” is real, it isn’t poetic imagery, even the smallest things matter like a virus.

    Where I live, a hole straight thru there center of the earth and out would put me in the Indian Ocean about 250 miles southeast of Madagascar.

    And anyone traversing that hole, upon arriving ad the center, would meet ol’ Dante’s buddies in the ninth circle of Hell.

    Finally, since Dante’s Purgatory is directly opposite of Jerusalem, it would be located on the South Pacific Ocean about 3500 miles directly west of Montevideo, Uruguay.
