How many miles and cash to the gallon is that ride? I guess Rent-a-Mourner works if the deceased has no living relatives. As for water from NP to SP and vice-versa, why do so?

An old profession: (2Samuel 14:2) "And Joab sent to Tekoah , and fetched thence a wise woman , and said unto her, I pray thee, feign thyself to be a mourner , and put on now mourning apparel , and anoint not thyself with oil , but be as a woman that had a long time mourned for the dead "

Polar Waters were exchanged four times by “NASAMIKE” Comberiate at the North Pole:April 24, 1995April 28, 1999April 24. 2001April 22, 2003as I recall, but I’ll have to check those last two dates.
They were exchanged at the South Pole four time as well, in Jan 1997Jan 2000Jan 2002Jan 2004Plus a few more times since then.No wonder we’ve got all this weird weather.

That motorcycle might have a chance of survival against a deer! In this area, I fear deer more than drunk drivers!
