Body Parts

Biomedical Tissue services. Their slogan may have been: If you need it, we can get it! Body parts, that is! From bodies in funeral homes in New York City, Rochester, Philadelphia and New Jersey.

Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes called it “something out of a cheap horror movie.

”Prosecutors said Thursday the defendants made millions of dollars obtaining bodies from funeral parlors in three states and forging death certificates and organ donor consent forms to make it look as if the bones, skin, tendons, heart valves and other tissue were legally removed

Does this make your skin crawl like mine?!

Tiger, tiger burning bright

China is trying to talk India into letting them farm tigers–those most beautiful of animals–for their body parts and pelts!
Aren’t we suppose to be trying to save them from extinction???

TIGER, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare seize the fire?

And what shoulder and what art
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand and what dread feet?

What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? What dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?

When the stars threw down their spears,
And water’d heaven with their tears,
Did He smile His work to see?
Did He who made the lamb make thee?

Tiger, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?
