Chapter 41 The Metropolis of the South
THE approaches to New Orleans were familiar; general aspects were
unchanged. When one goes flying through London along a railway propped
in the air on tall arches, he may inspect miles of upper bedrooms
through the open windows, but the lower half of the houses is under
his level and out of sight. Similarly, in high-river stage, in the New
Orleans region, the water is up to the top of the enclosing levee-rim,

1895年,一个叫Michael Aislabie Denham 人出版的一本叫The Denham Tracts的书里
有这么一段:
What a happiness this must have been seventy or eighty years ago and upwards
, to those chosen few who had the good luck to be born on the eve of this
festival of all festivals; when the whole earth was so overrun with ghosts,
boggles, bloody-bones, spirits, demons, ignis fatui, brownies, bugbears,

back in black
I hit the sack
I've been too long I'm glad to be back
yes, I'm let loose
from the noose
that's kept me hanging about
I've been looking at the sky
'cause it's gettin' me high
forget the hearse 'cause I never die
I got nine lives
cat's eyes
abusin' every one of them and running wild
'cause I'm back
yes, I'm back
well, I'm back
yes, I'm back

M****r 发帖数: 359 | 8 给大家说说大概花销在什么地方,和不同的价位。
这些年参加过几个葬礼,大型、小型都有,算是有个概念吧。
葬礼“Basic Service Fee”,价格从$1000~ $2000 都有,这个是最低收费每家必须的
,
+ embalming 防腐 $500~$800
+ 化妆(衣服、发型、陈馆)$250~$600
+ 观瞩遗体费(别笑,这个不便宜,一般是 $400~$600之间,半个小时)
+ 埋葬费(大概$700~ $100左右)
+ Hearse ($500左右)
+ 礼宾车 limo service( $300)
+ 墓地服务 ($800~$1000)
这是加州湾区这边的价格,各项杂七杂八加起来也是笔不小的开支,便宜的$3500左右,
贵的一套搞下来差不多$7000了。
火化费各家差别很大,从$1000 ~ $2500都有。
真正贵的地方是墓地,活人住小黑屋,逝者住小黑坑,价格从几千到上万都有。
如果您家人要过世,大概准备好$5000~$10000吧。 |

既然是募捐来的钱,能不能省着点花?哪怕是多还点房贷也好啊。

你不知道啊,这是墓园提供的buy one get one free 的deal,错过可惜的。
另外,这样下次要钱可以更理直气壮啊。

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHAhnJbGy9M&feature=fvw
This is how it works
It feels a little worse
Than when we drove our hearse
Right through that screaming crowd
While laughing up a storm
Until we were just bone
Until it got so warm
That none of us could sleep
And all the styrofoam
Began to melt away
We tried to find some worms
To aid in the decay
But none of them were home
Inside their catacomb
A million ancient bees
Began to sting our knees
While we were on ... 阅读全帖 |

This just in. The normally reclusive Mafia overlord Don Vito Corleone,
known as "the Godfather," has broken his long-held silence and sent a
recorded message to Daisy Pachelbel, a fast-rising star in the gangland
ranks, through L&L News. Our Lupo del Nord-Ovest is in New York with
more on this story. Lupo?

Yes, Barbara. It stemmed from a recent incident when Daisy Pachelbel,
