H. R. Giger is more industrial-pornographic-horror than morbid. As if that makes a whole lot of difference anyway. :P

He's the man :-P

I thought that church was a hoax at first, but there's so many pictures. Then I was wondering where in the world they would get so many bones. Very interesting.

Topher apparently hasn't seen the Catacombs of Paris before :P. Theres a whole underground of passageways underneith the city of light built with the remains of around 7 Million Parisians.

Human remains aren't exactly in short supply :P

I've seen that church on the Travel Channel before. It's macabre, but kind of amazing too. I think Hildy is doing a house like that on Trading Spaces next week (doubt many will get that reference) :P

You actually WATCH that?

Course even in text that seemed to be dashed with quite a bit of sarcasm :P
