Ted Williams' head abused in storage
Written by a whistleblower selling a book, so take it with however many grains of salt you need.
But if it's true, I hope the son who put Ted in there is in Hell being forced to listen to Paris Hilton reciting Shakespeare backwards.

Ugh.
John Henry made the decision to have his father’s body taken to Alcor for freezing, setting off a battle with his half-sister, who said her father had wanted to be cremated. The matter was settled in December 2002, when Bobby Jo Williams Ferrell, Ted Williams’ oldest daughter, dropped her objections.
In a compromise finding a middle-ground between their original wishes, John Henry and Bobby Jo Williams Ferrell agreed to store Ted’s body at room temperature…

Remarkable
You wonder what the hell people think about. Become a combination of Springer and Maury Povich.

Creepy
Two words:
“Severed head”
But then it got worse:
“baseball-like swings " & “monkey wrench”
C’mon monkey wrench? Its a damn pipe wrench!

General question for the regular BCB cryogentic reader/s:
How many “monkey wrench swings” can a 6 year old frozen head take?

Ted, we somehow know you better now
Read about this equally bizarre bit of art here.

I don't know which way we will go ..
