Professor Jeremy Metters, Her Majesty's Inspector of Anatomy was lamenting the decline in those willing to donate their bodies to medical science. His sincerity might have been more convincing if in the background we'd been spared the sound of things being chopped.

Dan, you are such an alarmist. That was just the salad greens being chopped for lunch.
Probably.
once in a while I wonder if others hear/see what you do. then I squash the thought and swallow your stories whole, with a pinch of salt and pepper.
You don't like sushi or sashimi, do you? Probably you don't even like some juicy oysters...
People tend to think about the use of dead bodies as something gory, but it isn't necessarily so. In fact even authopsies are less gory than surgery on living persons.
Anyway, a corpse is nothing but a piece of meat and bones, an empty box and that is that.
Inspector of Anatomy?
Oh my.
Oh me oh my :-)
Salad greens being chopped for lunch with body parts? eeeeeeeewwwwww
Dan, did you re-write this?
Didn't the original post say "Inspector of Corpses, or Copses, or something like that?"
Tsk. Tsk.
Anon,
I did rewrite it because the reality of an HM Inspector of Anatomy I thought even funnier than a made up name. Inspector of Anatomy? An official inspector of anatomy? Jeeze there must be a billion jokes hiding in there somewhere.
Hayden,
I only ever speak the truth. The chopping bit is the truth, also I never mentioned he was interviewed in what sounded like a crypt with dripping water and echoey voice. Thinking about it he sounded rather like Vincent Price, and he laughed at the end.
D,
I love sushi though not so keen on oysters as I think they have the consistency of snot. As for dead bodies, hey I'm simply following your lead.
G,
It was anon who raised the issue of salad being chopped however I listened again to the recording and faint in the background is a short order chef calling for more celery. What a restaurant! At least we know the meat's fresh, but what type of meat?
Dan, it's the lame excuses for your re-write that are funnier than any reality.
Hugs and kisses.
Anon,
Not sure what you mean by lame excuse, I wasn't offering an excuse but an explanation as to why I changed the blog, and I offered the explanation because you asked. Nothing wrong with asking anon, nothing lame about replying.
