# 981. Not So Morbid, Morbid or Murder - You Choose !!!

Cheese Burger Anyone ???

When I was surfing the blog world,I came across this "post" !!! I wasn't too sure on which of my blogs to list it, so I listed it here. You tell me if you think it is "Morbid" or "Murder". Those "vegans" out there will be saying that it's "Murder" - but each to his or her own tastes.

Pennies From Heaven !!!

Pennies from Heaven ??? Well to us kids, that's what it seem like, pre decimal currency and then dollars & cents !!! All we had to do, to collect those pennies from heaven was to crawl around underneath the outside decking of the Waitangi Hotel. There was broken glass, beer tops, cigarette butts and "pennies" dropped by the drunk people, through the gaps of the decking. It also seemed to be always "wet" !!! It could of been fresh beer that was split from their jugs or it could of been re-cycled beer - who knew, who cared ??? All us kids were interested in was the "pennies" - we didn't care if we got wet in the process, because we knew we would soon dry out lying on the beach in the sun eating out ice-creams & lolies brought with our "pennies from heaven". When I come to think of it, there was the odd shower or two sometimes - strange that, beacuse it never seemed to be raining, when we crawled out from underneath the decking !!! Beer anyone - open your mouth !!!


It Was Sealed In A Tin !!!

It was the height of post-war luxury - a hamper filled with delicacies, including a "whole roast chicken" preserved in it's own jelly and sealed in a tin. The year was 1956 and the hamper was brought for the guests of a wedding. But......the chicken never got eaten !!! Well, that is until 50 years later on their 5oth Golden Wedding Anniversary, when the "bridgegroom" decided to open the tin and eat the "chicken" !!! He said it was really quite tasty, but a little salty !!! Well what would you expect after 50 years ??? The "bride" declined to taste their "wedding chicken" on the grounds that she was recovering from the flu !!! It didn't kill him as he was a tough old "bird" !!!

Nurse Poisioned 18 Patients !!!

A male nurse poisioned 18 patients at a hospital, killing two of them so he could enjoy the excitment of trying to revive them. The nurse deliberately took patients with no life threating condition, to the brink of death. The hospital was mystified why so many patients suffered sudden collapse over the 3 months. He was charged with two murders, as well as 18 counts of inflicting grievous bodily harm.

Hitch-hiker !!!

I started when I was about 10 - I used to put out my thumb and just hope that I didn't get a "kick up the bum" !!! I can't recall anyone telling me not to do it !!! But even if they had of, I would of still went ahead and did it anyway. Hey I was a kid - maybe a little krazy, but after all, still a kid. Only once I turned down the offer of a ride - the door was open, the rain was pissing down, but......it just didn't seem right so I said "thanks but no thanks". There was no way in the world, I was getting in that car !!! I would of sooner of died of cold than got into that car and maybe ended up murdered at the hands of a stranger !!! Stranger Danger ??? Never heard of it in those days !!!
